What is the universal currency of energy in living organisms?
ATP
What is the energy transfer molecule used in living organisms?
ATP
Which molecule is used by cells as an energy source?
Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) and Phosphate (PO4) are brought together by Phosphocreatine (Also known as PCr or Creatine Phosphate) to regenerate ATP. Phosphocreatine contains high energy phosphate bonds, much like ATP. PCr is not able to supply energy directly to a cell. Its main function is to store the excess energy produced from mitochondria in its phosphate bonds. PCr is made when Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is sufficient, and gives its energy to ADP molecules when ATP is deficient. Muscles quickly exhaust the supply of PCr, however, so the body depends heavily upon the cellular respiration of glucose to synthesize (not regenerate) ATP.
What is the function of mitochondria in eukayotic organisms?
the mitochondria has a double membrane structure that provides adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the ATP is a molecule that provides energy to the organisms.
Living organisms must be able to obtain materials, change the materials into new forms, remove poisons, and move needed material from one place to another Many of these activities directly require?
Energy released from ATP
How do ATP and creatine phosphate interact?
Creatine phosphate supplying energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and phosphate.
Where the cells get the energy to regenerate ATP?
Cells make Adenosine Triphosphate from a protein complex called ATP Synthase. This enzyme is what actually makes ATP.
What do organisms obtain in food for energy?
Organisms form ATP from food. ATP is called the "energy currency" of the cell. ATP is like a battery, it runs all the cell's functions.
What is ATP in organisms?
energy formed by repiration
What purpose does creatine phosphate serve?
Creatine Phosphate Supplies energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and phosphate.
What is the universal currency of energy in living organisms?
ATP
The main source of energy for reactions that occur in all living organisms is .?
atp
Why do all organisms need ATP?
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an important coenzyme used as an energy carrier in the cells of all known organisms. It is a necessary component in many processes, such as active transport and cell-to-cell signaling.
What is the fire that living organisms can use as chemical energy?
ATP
