Questions and Answers
What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?
What is the role of ATP in cellular processes?
- Providing energy for both energy-consuming and energy-releasing reactions (correct)
- Storing genetic information for cellular processes
- Regulating the expression of genes in prokaryotic cells
- Facilitating cell division in eukaryotic cells
Why is ATP compared to a rechargeable battery for cellular processes?
Why is ATP compared to a rechargeable battery for cellular processes?
- Because ATP has a long half-life in the cell
- Because ATP is only involved in energy-releasing reactions
- Because the bond in ATP is easily broken and reformed, releasing energy for cellular work (correct)
- Because ATP is only used once in cellular processes
Why does ATP contain a high potential energy?
Why does ATP contain a high potential energy?
- Due to the presence of multiple chemical bonds (correct)
- Because it is a stable molecule
- Because it requires a large input of activation energy
- Due to its low reactivity in the cell
