Terms in this set (14)
What does "ATP" stand for? Adenosine Triphosphate
What is the purpose of ATP? Provide usable energy to all cells.
ADP stands for Adenosine Diphosphate
Where does the energy used to create ATP come from? Glucose in the food we eat
The ATP structure
3 parts of ATP Adenine, ribose and 3 phosphates
What happens to an ATP molecules if a phosphate is Energy is released from the breaking of the high energy bond between the 2 and
removed? 3 phosphate.
Useable energy ATP
How is energy absorbed by ADP? When a phosphate group is added to ADP to make ATP.
How is energy released by ATP? When the phosphate group is broken off producing ADP + P + energy.
ADP The compound that remains when a phosphate group is removed from ATP,
releasing energy.
exergonic reaction Reaction that proceeds with a release of energy.
endergonic reaction Reaction that absorbs energy from its surroundings.
The majority of energy is stored in the last phosphate-phosphate bond
