Which of the following statements about the role of ATP in cell metabolism is true?

The energy from the hydrolysis of ATP may be directly coupled to endergonic processes by the transfer of the phosphate group to another molecule. A key feature in the way cells manage their energy resources to do this work is energy coupling, the use of an exergonic process to drive an endergonic one. ATP is responsible for mediating most energy coupling in cells, and in most cases it acts as the immediate source of energy that powers cellular work.


What is the main way cells get energy from ATP?

Cells get energy from ATP through hydrolysis, which is the process of breaking down ATP into ADP and inorganic phosphate. This reaction releases energy that can be used by the cell for various cellular processes.


In what way are cellular respiration and fermentation alike in what ways are they different?

Both cellular respiration and fermentation are processes that break down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP. However, cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen and results in a much higher yield of ATP, while fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen and produces lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts.


What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

The main purpose of cellular respiration is to convert glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy currency of the cell. This process occurs in the mitochondria and provides cells with the energy they need to carry out various functions and processes.


What are two ways a cell can get energy from food?

Cells can release energy in two basic processes: Cellular respiration and fermentation. Cellular respiration requires oxygen but fermentation does not. Cellular respiration releases MUCH more usable energy then fermentation does.

Why is the production of ATP limited in the first three stages of cellular respiration?

Because it's the most efficient way for cells to get ATP, and those processes have been designed over time to be specialized in making ATP. However, this doesn't mean that the three stages of cellular respiration is the only way to make ATP. In photosynthesis for example, light reaction in the thylakoid membrane makes ATP in addition to NADPH so it may be used in the light independent reaction.


What is the best way to produce ATP?

The best way to produce ATP is through cellular respiration, which occurs in the mitochondria of cells. This process involves breaking down glucose molecules into ATP through a series of metabolic reactions, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.

How does a cellular respiration allow a cell to produce ATP?

Yes is does, the chemical formula for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ADP Glucose + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + Water + energy(ATP) The cell breaks up the glucose into Energy in the form of ATP which the plant can then use ~element. A definition of 'a fruitless exercise' is to try to find even one cellular process that does not require ATP.


What is the energy molecule formed by cellular respiration called?

Energy released through cellular respiration is generated in the form of ATP molecules. ATP = Adenosine TriPhosphate. The process is also called electron transfer pathway or oxidative phosphorylation


What would be the Most efficient form of cellular respiration result in production of ATP?

There are many ways to product ATP. The most efficient way to produce ATP is Aerobic respiration, this produces 34 ATP molecules.

What are the products (results) of cellular respiration?

The end products of the entire process of typical uncomplicated cellular respiration -->are 36 or 38 ATP, 6 oxygen molecules, 6 carbon dioxide molecules, and 6 water molecules. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are different things though, I see that your question is under the category of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis (happens in green plants) produces glucose and oxygen. It then uses the glucose to begin cellular respiration in it's mitochondria.. plants need ATP too. They just use photosynthesis as a way of producing the sugar they need to produce ATP...just like we eat sugar for our energy production (cellular respiration)

What are the reactants products and basic functions of aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration?

In aerobic cellular respiration, the reactants are glucose and oxygen, which are converted into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP molecules. This process occurs in the presence of oxygen and is the most efficient way for cells to produce energy. In anaerobic cellular respiration, the reactants are glucose alone, and the products can include lactic acid, ethanol, and ATP. This process occurs in the absence of oxygen and is less efficient in terms of ATP production compared to aerobic respiration.
