    Study Notes

    Energy and ATP

    • The primary form of energy currency in cells is ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).
    • Chemical energy is stored in the phosphate bonds of the ATP molecule.
    • When ATP loses a phosphate group, it becomes ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) and releases energy.

    Photosynthesis and Light Energy

    • When light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, it excites high-energy electrons.
    • These high-energy electrons play a crucial role in transferring energy during photosynthesis.
    • Light energy is utilized to create sugars in autotrophs through the process of photosynthesis.
