Which functional group can accept or release protons H depending on pH?
carboxyl, amino, phosphate
When an acid ionizes in water it produces what when a base dissociates in water it produces what?
Inorganic acids release in water solutions the cation H+. Inorganic bases release in water solutions the anion OH-.
Explain why ATP molecule splits?
ATP contains three phosphate groups. The third phosphate group (the outermost one) is called the alpha phosphate. The breaking of this phosphate bond is accompanied by the release of a large amount of energy which can be used to drive key steps in metabolic reactions. With the removal of alpha phosphate, the remainder molecule is ADP
What bond in ATP breaks to release energy during the formation of ADP?
The major molecule involved in energy release and storage is ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE. It contains a large ADENOSINE molecule connected to three PHOSPHATE groups via PHOSPHATE bond. When the bond that connects one of the three PHOSPHATE groups to the ADENOSINE molecule is broken down, energy is released. The resulting molecule would be ADENOSINE DIPHOSPHATE, one free PHOSPHATE group and energy.
How are adp and ATP molecules the same?
ATP and ADP are similar in the sense that they are both molecules that release energy to the cells. ADP differs from ATP because it has one less phosphate group. ADP forms after ATP has released energy.
Is organic phosphate release by cellular respiration?
No , inorganic phosphate is produced .
What is released when a ATP looses a phosphate?
ATP (adinine triphosphate) loses a phosphate group to become ADP (adinine diphosphate). The phosphate group was released is referred to as inorganic phosphate. There is also a release of energy as the high energy phosphate bonds are cleaved.
Which functional group can accept or release protons H depending on pH?
carboxyl, amino, phosphate
Why is ADP more stable than ATP?
Adensosine Di-Phosphate is at a lower energy configuration than Adenosine Tri-Phosphate. When we have the hydrolysis reaction of ATP such that ATP+H20→ADP+Inorganic Phosphate+Energy, the Inorganic Phosphate has more stability as the split off phosphorus has more resonance configurations to achive stability. Also, the phosphate groups of ATP are repelled by the negative charges on theconsecutiveoxygen's bonded tophosphorus, thus ATP is much more stable than ADP. As a result, ATP→ADP is an important process as it isspontaneous as the splitting reaction into smaller molecules wants to occur, and would thus release stored energy which was originally needed to convert ADP→ATP.
What does ATP release when it loses a phosphate group?
ATP release one phosphate atom through the craps cycle, it will reformed to ADP.
How does ATP become ADP?
through the release of phosphate group
How is energy stored in ATP released?
Energy stored in ATP is released through the breaking of high-energy phosphate bonds. When ATP is hydrolyzed by the enzyme ATPase, a phosphate group is cleaved off, yielding ADP and inorganic phosphate, along with the release of energy that can be used for cellular processes.
ATP is what kind of agent in almost all metabolic pathways?
ATP is the immediate source of energy for many processes in cells.In many cases the energy is released as ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi). In some instances ATP is split into AMP and pyrophosphate, which may subsequently be itself split into two phosphate groups, with the release of a further packet of energy.
How does ATP enable transport proteins to move ions across a cell membrane?
Once translated, proteins are dispersed throughout the cellular environment. This section covers the transport of a protein into a specific organelle--the mitochondria.
How do animals release phosphate to the environment?
Through their dung.
What does the cleavage of glycogen phosphorylase release?
glucose-1-phosphate
When an acid ionizes in water it produces what when a base dissociates in water it produces what?
Inorganic acids release in water solutions the cation H+. Inorganic bases release in water solutions the anion OH-.
