Active transport across the plasma membrane, mitosis, the synthesis of certain proteins such as enzymes in the endoplasmic reticulum (especially in cells with a high rate of secretion), and the contraction of skeletal and cardiac muscles all require ATP, and are just a few examples.

What requires ATP?
The uptake of cholesterol by a cell
What is the movement of potassium into an animal cell requires?
The movement of potassium into an animal cell requires an energy source such as ATP or a proton gradient. Water passes quickly through cell membranes because it moves through aquaporins in the membrane.
What part of the cell is a major site of ATP synthesis and is scattered throughout the cell?
In a cell that is respiring aerobically (i.e. using oxygen), the mitochondria are the site of most ATP production.They are scattered through the cytoplasm, but tend to concentrate where the cell requires energy.
Facilitated diffusion requires the use of cellular energy ATP expenditure?
No it does not
How is ATP involved in thermoregulation?
ATP transports chemical energy within the cell for use in the process of thermoregulation.
What requires ATP?
The uptake of cholesterol by a cell
What is importance of ATP in a cell?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate), is the major fuel in a cell used for anything that requires energy.
What requires some ATP energy to get started?
Respiration requires some ATP energy to get started. It is defined as what cells do to break up sugars into a form that the cell can use as energy. This happens in all forms of life. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP.
Why is the ATP concentration in a cell about 10 times the concentration of ADP?
The ATP concentration in a cell is about ten times the concentration of ADP because ATP is the immediate energy currency of the cell. It donates energy by means of its terminal phosphate group, which is easily transferred to an acceptor molecule. ATP is formed by the phosphorylation of ADP, an endergonic process that requires an input of energy. So ATP is much more needed in the cell, and the amounts of ADP are always being transferred to ATP for the use of cell.
What action does not require the cell to use ATP?
Diffusion does not require the use of any ATP.
How can ATP be renewed?
occurs through the ATP/ADP cycle, IS NOT THE RESULT OF ENTROPY,requires inorganic phosphate and is an example of endergonic reaction.
A muscle cell that requires a lot of ATP would likely have many?
mitochandria
What is the movement of potassium into an animal cell requires?
The movement of potassium into an animal cell requires an energy source such as ATP or a proton gradient. Water passes quickly through cell membranes because it moves through aquaporins in the membrane.
What produces ATP for cell use?
Mitochondria
Produces ATP for cell use?
Mitochondria.
Were does ATP store its energy?
When ATP is formed from ADP and free phosphate, energy is stored in the bond between the terminal phosphate and the rest of the molecule.When a cell requires energy, it breaks this bond, the terminal phosphate is freed, and a packet of energy is released for the cell to use.
What does cell membrane in a plant cell?
What does a cell membrane do in a plant cell?A cell membrane creates a barrier that is semipermeable. The barrier separates the plant's internal structure consisting of organelles from the external environment. Exchange of molecules between the two environments exists in the form of passive transport (requires no ATP) and active transport (requires the expenditure of ATP).
