What is the reaction that releases chemical energy for most cell functions?

Back

ATP → ADP + P

Front

What is the reaction that stores chemical energy for later use in most cell functions?

Back

ADP + P → ATP

Front

What is the energy-carrying molecule that stores energy for cell functions?

Back

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

Front

Which of the following is NOT one of the three items that come together to form ATP?

Front

What is the weak bond that stores the energy ATP carries?

Back

Phosphate 2 - Phosphate 3

Front

What are the three components that make up ATP?

Back

Adenine, ribose, and three phosphate groups.

Front

What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP provides energy for various cellular functions.

Front

How is energy released from ATP?

Back

Energy is released when ATP is converted to ADP and a phosphate group.

Front

What is the significance of the phosphate bonds in ATP?

Back

The phosphate bonds store potential energy that can be used for cellular work.

Front

What happens to ATP during cellular respiration?

Back

ATP is produced from ADP and phosphate during cellular respiration.
