Question

discuss the role of atp in free energy production? ( 5marks)​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The breaking down of food particles we consume and derive energy from is called metabolism. ... Thus, ATP production in cells stores Gibbs free energy which can then be used for other processes with the help of the reverse reaction which converts ATP to ADP and, in the process, releases 30.5 kJ of energy per ATP molecule

Answer 2

Answer:

• Adenosine triphosphate is composed of the nitrogenous base adenine, the five-carbon sugar ribose, and three phosphate groups.
• ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP in the reaction ATP+H2O→ADP+Pi+ free energy; the calculated ∆G for the hydrolysis of 1 mole of ATP is -57 kJ/mol.
• ADP is combined with a phosphate to form ATP in the reaction ADP+Pi+free energy→ATP+H2O.
• The energy released from the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP is used to perform cellular work, usually by coupling the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis with endergonic reactions.
• Sodium-potassium pumps use the energy derived from exergonic ATP hydrolysis to pump sodium and potassium ions across the cell membrane while phosphorylation drives the endergonic reaction.
