ATP and Cellular Energy

Question 1

What does you cell uses for energy?

Answer 1

ATP

Question 2

What is the difference between ATP and ADP

Answer 2

ATP has 3 phosphate groups and ADP has 2

Question 3

Does ATP or ADP have more energy for the cell to use?

Answer 3

ATP

Question 4

How does you cell get energy from ATP?

Answer 4

breaking off the 3rd phosphate group provides energy

Question 5

What is the relationship between ATP and ADP

Answer 5

when the third phosphate groups from ATP is removed it becomes ADP, when a phosphate group is added to ADP it becomes ATP

Question 6

What is the most efficient way to produce ATP?

Answer 6

Aerobic Cellular Respiration (Krebs cycle followed by the Electron Transport Chain)

Question 7

Which Macomolecule has the ability to produce the most ATP?

Answer 7

Lipids

Question 8

Which Macromolecule is most easily converted to ATP?

Answer 8

Carbs

Question 9

What order does you body use Macromolecules to produce ATP

Answer 9

Carbs
Lipids
Proteins

Question 10

Why does this order make sense?

Answer 10

Carbs are easy to convert
Lipids are stored and have the ability to produce a lot of ATP but it isn’t easily done.
The body wants to burn Proteins last because they are what build and actually do things in your body.
