Biochemical process that involves the addition of phosphate to an organic compound.

• Phosporilation

• Hydrolysis

• ATP

• Chemical work

Energy currency used throughout the cell.

• Chemical work

• Phosporilation

• Hydrolysis

• ATP

Process of breaking down bonds between phosphate group

• chemical work

• Adenosine Triphosphate

• Hydrolysis

• Phosporilation

Used by cells as a means of converting the large amount of energy in food molecules into smaller amounts of energy needed to drive the sythetic reaction of cells
