Question

Living organisms use a two-step process to provide the energy needed for most of their biological activities. First, chemical energy from the breakdown of sugars (or other organic molecules) is used to build ATP from ADP+ P. This over process is called cellular respiration. Then, ATP provides the energy for most biological processes. When ATP breaks down to ADP plus a phosphate (P), this releases energy which is used for many different cellular processes. Provide at least 3 examples of the cell that requires energy.

Explanation / Answer

1: Active transport of substances: The cell transport the substances through active transport against the concentration gradiant using ATP.
2: Anabolism: Synthesis of complex polymers from simpler monomers need input of energy provided by ATP.
3: Contraction of muscles require energy provided by ATP.
