The production of ATP, adenosine triphosphate, happens during a complex enzyme-controlled biochemical process known as cellular respiration. In this cycle, three main phases take place producing a number of ATP molecules at each stage:
Glycolysis - produces two molecules of ATP. This process can also occur anaerobically.
Link Reaction - nil
Krebs Cycle - This produces another two molecules of ATP. This process must occur aerobically.
Hydrogen Transfer Chain or Electron Transport Chain - this yields the most molecules of ATP, making 34 molecules and bringing the total molecules from the whole cycle to reach 36.
Note that the predicted yield is only theoretical and there are numerous other factors that may cause it to not resemble the predicted outcome.
ADP, adenosine diphosphate can be thought of as a "flat" battery. ATP is the charged battery. Once the energy is released from ATP, the phosphate is 'gone' and another one needs to attach to the ADP.
True. In glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules are consumed during the energy investment phase, but a net gain of 2 ATP molecules is produced during the energy payoff phase, resulting in a total net gain of 2 ATP molecules.
That is true; the potential energy in an ATP molecule is derived mainly from its three phosphate groups.
The specific name of the protein channel that makes ATP is ATP synthase. This enzyme is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and is responsible for catalyzing the synthesis of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate during cellular respiration.
No, the region of ATP synthase that catalyzes the production of ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate spans the inner mitochondrial membrane, not the chloroplast membrane. In chloroplasts, ATP synthase is located in the thylakoid membrane and is responsible for generating ATP during photosynthesis.
No, it's not, lysosome only digest unfunctioned organelle, while the ATP is produced by mitochondrion
