Study Notes
ATP Role in Respiration
- Glucose is broken down during respiration
- Energy release may not be immediate
- Energy used to build ATP
- ATP releases stored chemical energy when needed
- ATP breaks down into ADP (Adenine Diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate
ATP Energy Use
- Energy released by ATP used for various cellular processes
- Examples include muscle contraction, active transport, cell division, protein synthesis, and nerve impulse transmission
