When muscle cells run out of oxygen, what happens to the potential for energy extraction from sugars and what pathways do the cell use? How does ATP help in providing energy for the body to operate? When animal cells do not get enough oxygen to satisfy the ...
When is energy released from ATP? Explain how photosynthesis and cellular respiration provide energy for life. Where do cells get the energy to regenerate ATP? How does ADP become ATP? What are the components of adenosine triphosphate ATP?
How do cells make ATP from glucose without oxygen? (a) How ATP is made from ADP? (b) How ATP is used for energy to do work in the body? What function does ATP serve inside cells? Energy transfers occur in all cellular activities. Explain this process and the role of AT...
How do plants produce ATP?. Ans: Hint: ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is a molecule that provides energy within cells. It is the cell's primary source of energy, and it is produced by photophosphorylation (adding a phosphate group to a molecule usin...

I understand that in removing the extra phosphate group to get an AMP more energy is released, but that also means that more energy has to be used to convert the AMP to ATP. Does the cell convert the AMP to ADP, which will ultimately become ATP in respiration, or does the cell use ...
Today I really want to cover solar cells and solar power systems - partly because renewable energy is such a huge pursuit in our community, partly because remote applications are a thing we occasionally do (shout out to all the burners!) and partly because I think the functional mechanism of...
Our evolution has ensured that muscle cells and other metabolically active tissues in our body have high amounts of NAD+. Muscle’s contract and relax to allow us to perform essential tasks. We have control over some muscles while others, like the heart do their jobs without our input. Thes...
from glucose to ATP. I'm not evolutionary biologist but if I were to speculate I'd say it's because animals ingest many different chemical energy sources from their diets (glucose, fructose, fats, proteins, etc.) and it would be extremely ineffecient to have a means for animals cells to...
Rest time and muscle energy systems As you work out, your body uses three different systems, which take turns to provide energy to your muscle cells by synthesizing adenosine triphosphate (ATP). So, depending on what you are doing and for how long, you will be using a different energy syst...
