Do you mean in the body? Overall there are many processes that can generate ATP. The electron transport chain is a main path that yeilds a lot of ATP. However, in both plants and animals there are processes that precede the electron transport chain, such as glycolysis or photosynthesis.

In biological oxidation Glucose molecule is oxidized in step wise manner. During this an electron istransferredto next molecule with lower energy level. ( Few times it step up.) So energy released in this process is stored in the form of ATP molecule converted from ADP molecules. Total 38 ATP molecules are formed in this process. It traps almost 40 % of energy in ATP molecules and rest is released as heat energy.

Via respiration; Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle! It is made from ADP + Pi. Where Pi is a phosphate group.

You may get ATP or adenosine triosphate through cellular respiration or glycolysis.

Which statement correctly describes how this increased demand would lead to an increased rate of ATP production?

ATP levels would fall at first, increasing the inhibition of PFK and increasing the rate of ATP production. Correct: ATP levels would fall at first, decreasing the inhibition of PFK and increasing the rate of ATP production.


In cyanide poisoning levels of ATP in the brain plummet but levels of lactic acid increase markedly why?

Oxidative phosphorilation is impeded so only glycolic fermentation is taking place. ( I was under the impression that only oxidative phosphorilation takes place in the brain )


What is phosphogen?

The Phosphogen SystemSkeletal muscle uses large amounts of ATP during active contraction. Skeletal muscle can produce limited amounts of ATP from the breakdown of stored phosphocreatine. As ATP is used and ATP levels decrease, phosphocreatine is used to make ATP from ADP. When the cell is resting and ATP levels increase due to aerobic glucose catabolism, phosphocreatine is produced from ATP and creatine. This mechanism can produce 1 ATP for every molecule of phosphocreatine present. Muscle cells normally have enough phosphocreatine to produce ATP for several minutes at rest but only 10-15 seconds during exercise.

Thyroid hormones levels decrease, TRH levels increase, and PRL levels increase.


What will happen if the ATP levels are too high?

ATP acts as negative feedback on itself, so if there's too much ATP in the system, ATP yielding pathways such as glycolysis and the Krebs cycle for example are stopped.


Does ATP syntaste produce ATP during cellular respiration?

Yes. ATP synthase does increase the production of ATP aerobic cellular respiration. That means oxygen has to be present to be the last or final electron acceptor.
