    Study Notes

    ATP-ADP Cycle Overview

    • The ATP-ADP cycle is a crucial process for energy transfer in living organisms
    • Organisms need energy for all tasks, from walking to sleeping
    • Cells use ATP to store and release energy
    • ATP releases energy when broken down into ADP
    • ADP is regenerated into ATP through a process called dehydration synthesis

    ATP Structure

    • ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is a molecule made of adenosine and three phosphate groups
    • Adenosine is composed of an adenine molecule bonded to a ribose molecule
    • Adenine is a nitrogenous base found in DNA
    • Ribose is a 5-carbon sugar
    • Phosphate groups are composed of a phosphorus atom bound to four oxygen atoms
    • The three phosphate groups are labeled alpha, beta, and gamma, in order of closest to furthest from the ribose sugar

    ATP Bonds

    • The bonds that connect the phosphate groups are high-energy bonds
    • Breaking these bonds releases energy
    • Sufficient energy released to power various cellular reactions and processes

    ATP Hydrolysis

    • Hydrolysis involves the process of breaking down macromolecules using water
    • During hydrolysis, water is split into H+ and OH− ions
    • These ions attach to separate molecules, breaking the macromolecule
    • In the hydrolysis of ATP, ATP is allowed to transfer its third phosphate, with its energy, to another substance
    • This process is called phosphorylation

    ATP Regeneration

    • ATP is regenerated from ADP through a process called dehydration synthesis
    • This continuous cycle allows for a constant supply of energy needed by the organism

    ATP Work

    • ATP performs chemical, transport, and mechanical work
    • Chemical work involves using energy to synthesize polymers from monomers
    • Transport work uses ATP to actively transport substances across cell membranes
    • Mechanical work includes processes like the beating of cilia, and muscle contractions
