Energy and ATP Flashcards
All energy is transferred from the ___
sun
Define energy
Energy cannot be created or destroyed only change its form
ATP and ADP is a ____ molecule
phosphorylated macromolecule
Adenine + ribose =
Adenosine
Adenine + ribose + 1 phosphate =
Adenosine Monophosphate ( AMP)
Adenine + ribose + 2 phosphate =
Adenosine Diphosphate ( ADP)
Adenine + ribose + 3 phosphate =
Adenosine triphosphate ( ATP)
Describe the bonds between Pi
unstable = low activation energy
when they are broken huge amounts of energy is released
What is the equation for the creation of ADP
HYDROYSIS
ATP + ( H20) -> ADP + Pi + E
CATALYSED BY ATP HYDROLASE
What is the equation for the creation of ADP?
HYDROYSIS
ATP + ( H20) -> ADP + Pi + E
CATALYSED BY ATP HYDROLASE
What is the equation for the creation of ATP?
CONDENSATION REACTION
ADP -> ATP + H20
CATALYSED BY ATP SYNTHASIS
Where does the synthesis of ATP occur?
PHOTOPHOSPHORYLATION
[In chlorophyll- containing cells during photosynthesis]
OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORLATION
[In plant and animal cells during respiration]
SUBSTRATE-LEVEL PHOSPHORLATION
[ In plant and animal cells when phosphate groups from Donor molecules to ADP ]
Which reaction
releases energy
requires energy
releases energy = hydrolysed ATP
requires energy = synthesised ATP
Why is ATP good for its role ?
Immediate energy store (better than glucose)
Each molecule of ATP releases more energy than glucose
Energy = smaller more manageable quantities
Hydrolysis ATP -> ADP = single reaction
Why is ATP a good energy source?
Immediate energy store (better than glucose)
Each molecule of ATP releases more energy than glucose
