The sodium-potassium pump is an active pump working against an electrochemical gradient, and cuts ATP to ADP with every transfer of sodium and potassium across acell membrane.
Most motor proteins are also ATPases, requiring the lysing of ATP with each "movement" of the motor protein in order to function. This is actually the cause ofrigor mortis; although ATP is not needed to cause the muscle's motor proteins to constrict, it is required to allow them to slide past one another into the resting state once more. As death halts respiration, and thus ATP creation, the muscles can become rigid, but cannot relax again (not until other decay processes simply cause these proteins to decay altogether).
The hydrogen-potassium pump that regulates acidity of the stomach contents is also an ATPase.
Transporting molecules across a plasma membrane and against a concentration gradient by means of active transport utilizes ATP.
Biosynthetic reactions, motility, cell division, Metabolic processes, and metabolism
Mitochondria
ATP (adenonsine triphosphate)
Energy in glucose is released. That energy is stored in ATP
ATP, adenosine triphosphate, is the energy for all cellular activity.
cellular respiration
The energy released in cellular respiration is to create ATP.
Any activity, or process, requires energy.
Mitochondria
Energy produced by heat.
ATP (adenonsine triphosphate)
C. Energy is released during cellular respiration, in the form of chemical energy.
mitochondria
cellular respiration
cellular respiration.
Mitochondria gets energy from glucose through the process of cellular respiration.
I wouldn't use the word fuel, but water is an intricate molecule in the mechanism that breaks down the carbohydrate glucose to produce cellular energy.
