What do mitochondria and thylakoid membrane have in common?
They are both places where ATP is produced.
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
Where are most of the ATP molecules produced in cells?
Most of the time, in the mitochondrion. But sometimes in the cytoplasm and other places.
Where does the ATP-PCr system take place in the cell?
cytoplasm
Describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD plus levels?
Fermentation allows glycolosis to take place. Glycolysis is a process during which, 2 ATP are used to produce 4 ATP, for a net profit of 2 ATP. When oxygen is not present, fermentation allows Glycolysis to continue by creating 2 ATP which are then used to restart the process of glycolysis. Even though the amount of ATP created is small, the process is still able to continue.
Which of the following is true of glycolysis?
While 2 net ATP are created in glycolysis, there also is a requirement of 2 ATP initially for glycolysis to take place
Why is ATP called portable energy currency?
ATP is called a portable energy currency because it is a carrier of energy that does not have to be used right away. One place in the body makes this energy-containing molecule so it can travel to other places in the body as needed.
Which statement best describes the events that take place within the mitochondrial membrane?
ATP is produced for use by cells.
What happens to excess ATP in the body?
The regulation of glycolysis would take place
Where in the chloroplast are ATP and NADPH formed during the light reactions?
The light dependent reactions take place in the thylakoid of the chloroplast. ATP is formed in the ATP synthase protein by the assistance of the hydrogen gradient produced in the electron transport chain.
The direct source of ATP for the development of a fetus is?
The direct source of ATP for the development of a fetus is a series of chemical activities that take place in the mitochondria of fetal cells.
How much time does glycolysis take?
The efficiency of glycolysis is not very good. For every molecule of ATP used, only TWO molecules of ATP are produced.
