How much ATP is stored in the muscles approximately?

Not much ATP is stored in the cells at any given time. Out of the 65,000 grams of ATP produced in a 24-hour period, any given time only 50 grams are present, most of which is in the muscles.


What energy is stored in ATP?

Adenosine triphosphate is stored in muscles as anhydrous salt, which is released when it is hydrolized to adenosine diphosphate.


How does the body utilize ATP glycogen during physical activity?

During physical activity, the body uses ATP (adenosine triphosphate) stored in muscles for immediate energy. If the activity continues, the body breaks down glycogen stored in the muscles and liver to produce more ATP for sustained energy.


How is ATP created from stored energy in the body?

ATP isn't created. The law of conservation of energy tells us that energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transferred from one form to the other. ATP is converted from glycogen to ATP. Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles.


What is the form of energy temporarily stored during tissue respiration before it is used by muscles?

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)?


What kind of energy do muscles used to do work?

Muscles primarily use chemical energy stored in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to produce mechanical work. The chemical energy in ATP is converted into mechanical energy to enable muscle contraction and movement.


Where is ATP-CP stored?

it is stored in the muscles for immediate need for energy. (example when you move your hand away from a hot plate.). this energy is always available mainly in muscles that do a lot of moving like thighs


Energy produced in mitochondria is stored in a substance called what?

Do you mean "WHAT is the substance called, where energy produced by the mitochondria, is stored?"ATP is produced by the mitochondria and it is stored there too.


What are the energy sources for muscle contraction to occur?

Energy is supplied to muscles for contraction by means of adenosine triphosphate being stored in muscle fibers. These are stored from creatine phosphate, enough to power muscle contractions for a few seconds.


During a race how do your muscles produce ATP after the store of ATP in muscles is used?

muscle cells produce ATP by cellular respiration through fermentation


What happens to food in order for it to be stored in ATP?

Respiration should take place. There energy of food is stored in ATP


What is the byproduct of ATP and is it bad for muscles?

The byproduct of ATP when it makes muscles work is ADP and energy. They are not harmful in anyway.
