The cell needs energy to do ❌. ❌ allows exergonic processes (which ❌ energy) to be coupled with endergonic processes (which ❌ energy) so that every necessary process is facilitated.
Which process is ATP NOT involved in?
Neurotransmission
RNA synthesis
Transport
Cell linking
Select the equation which BEST outlines the exergonic process of ATP hydrolysis.
ATP → ADP + Phosphate group + Energy
ATP → ADP + PO3 + ATP
ADP + Phosphate group + Energy → ATP
ADP → ATP
ATP hydrolysis does not change the energy of a system, but rather creates free energy for another process.
ATP phosphorylates molecules which would not normally react and allows endergonic processes to occur.
ATP hydrolysis cools the surrounding environment.
ATP is recyclable.
Which statement about the ATP cycle is CORRECT?
ATP hydrolysis forms ADP and a phosphate group, as well as producing free energy for endergonic processes
ATP will readily reform from ADP and a phosphate group while free floating in the cytoplasm.
Fermentation is a ❌ process to attain chemical energy from food ❌. Cellular respiration is a catabolic process to attain ❌ from food ❌, mainly from ❌ in starch and carbohydrates.
Which of the following statements about cellular respiration is CORRECT?
Cellular respiration harvests energy from C-H bonds by transferring the electrons to O2.
Cellular respiration harvests energy from C-H bonds and transfers the electrons to O2.
Cellular respiration harvests energy from C-H bonds by transferring the electrons to an electron carrier like NAD.
Cellular respiration releases a large amount of energy in a process similar to simple combustion.
Cellular respiration harvests usable energy in a series of controlled steps.
