Making ATP: ADP + P + energy (comes from cellular respiration) ----> ATP + water

Using ATP: ATP + water ------> ADP + P + energy (this energy is used by cells to do work)

The P stands for a phosphate group, not the element phosphorous.

Is ATP produced in degradation of organic compounds such as glucose?

Atp can be produce by photosynthesis. Atp is produced in the degradation of organic compounds such as glucose. It also is generated in anaerobic respiration and is released in aerobic respiration.


Which organelle is the primary site of ATP synthesis in eukaryotic cells?

The primary site of ATP synthesis in eukaryotic cells is the mitochondrion. Mitochondria generate ATP through a process called oxidative phosphorylation, which occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

What is the difference between synthesis and degradation?

Synthesis is the process of building complex molecules from simpler components, while degradation is the process of breaking down complex molecules into simpler components. Synthesis typically requires energy input, while degradation releases energy. Both processes are essential for maintaining the balance of biomolecules in living organisms.


Are mitochdria found in plant cells animal cells or both?

Both plant and animal cells contain mitochondria for the synthesis of ATP. Animals eat food to get the material that is used in ATP synthesis and plant make the material used in ATP synthesis through the process of photosynthesis.

What membrane do protons cross in the synthesis of ATP?

Protons cross the inner mitochondrial membrane during ATP synthesis in a process known as oxidative phosphorylation. This movement of protons creates a gradient that is used to drive the production of ATP by ATP synthase.


What are the directions of hydrogen flow during synthesis of ATP?

During the synthesis of ATP, the flow of hydrogen ions (protons) is from the intermembrane space through the ATP synthase complex into the mitochondrial matrix. This movement of hydrogen ions creates a proton gradient that drives the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate.


Do dehydration reactions require ATP?

Dehydration reactions typically do not require ATP because they involve the removal of water molecules to form new bonds. However, some dehydration reactions that involve the synthesis of complex molecules may require ATP as an energy source for the process.
