Through the first law of conservation of matter, matter can neither be created nor destroyed, only changed. This being said, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) can not be destroyed. It can, however, be broken up by several biological reactions into ADP (adenosine diphosphate). During these reactions, energy is released that a cell can use in order to perform certain actions.
What else can I help you with?
What do mitochondiral and thylakoid membranes have in common?
They both use ATP synthase proteins in ATP production
What is meant by a net gain of two ATP molecules from glycolysis?
2 ATP
What molecule is the main source of energy for cells?
Carbohydrate
How many ATP's does 6 pyruvic acids make?
38 ATP makes 6 puyric acid
What energy is used in passive transport?
ATP is what is normally used for energy in cells.
How is ATP created from stored energy in the body?
ATP isn't created. The law of conservation of energy tells us that energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transferred from one form to the other. ATP is converted from glycogen to ATP. Glycogen is stored in the liver and muscles.
How do cells replace the energy-rich ATP that is destroyed in energy-coupled reactions?
Both chloroplasts use light energy to synthesize ATP and mitochondria synthesize ATP using energy that's realeased by oxidizing sugars and fats.
What process of the cell will be disrupted if the following organelles were destroyed?
If the mitochondria were destroyed, the process of cellular respiration would be disrupted because mitochondria are responsible for producing most of the cell's ATP energy. If the endoplasmic reticulum were destroyed, protein synthesis and lipid metabolism would be affected since the ER is involved in these processes. If the lysosomes were destroyed, the cell's ability to break down waste materials and recycle old components would be impaired.
How does the old ATP tally differ from the new ATP tally?
The old ATP tally differs from the new ATP tally by about 2 ATP.
What is ATP what is its function?
ATP is known as Adenosine TriPhosphate. Hence the abbreviation ATP. ATP is produced by the ribosome in a cell. ATP is energy for the cell.
How is ATP different from cellular respiration?
ATP is a product.Respiration is a process.Respiration produces ATP.
Is ATP polar?
No, ATP is hydrophilic
What do human and animal cells obtain through lactic acid fermentation during exercises?
ATP
What molecule carries out the major amount of energy for the cell?
ATP or adenosine triphosphate, is involved in energy transfer.
What is the difference between ATPase and ATP synthase?
ATPase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and inorganic phosphate, releasing energy in the process. ATP synthase is an enzyme that uses the energy released from a proton gradient to catalyze the formation of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate. In essence, ATPase breaks down ATP, while ATP synthase synthesizes ATP.
How many ATP is produced by aerobic respiration?
total 38 atp but 2 atp used in glycolysis net profit is 36 atp
What is the enzyme required to make ATP?
ATP synthtase along with other enzymes and coenzymes .
