Energy Flashcards
What does energy metabolism create?
ATP
How many phosphate groups does one ATP molecule have?
3
Where is the energy stored in ATP molecules?
The bonds to the PO4 groups
What is created when ATP is broken down?
ATP –> ADP + P + energy
How is energy gained from lipids?
Beta-oxidation
How is energy gained from Carbohydrates?
Glycolysis
