Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the role of ATP in cellular thermodynamics?
  • Step 1: Understand that ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate, which is a molecule found in all living cells.
  • Step 2: Recognize that ATP is often called the 'energy currency' of the cell because it stores and provides energy.
  • Step 3: Learn that when cells need energy for processes like muscle contraction, cell division, or active transport, they use ATP.
  • Step 4: Realize that ATP releases energy when it breaks down into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and a phosphate group.
  • Step 5: Understand that this energy release is what powers various biochemical reactions in the cell.
