ATP
Cellular Respiration
• A process used by all living things to extract energy from glucose
• This “form of energy” is called ATP, and it is a molecule
• All forms of life do it! (Bacteria, Fungi, etc).• Chemical Reaction:
What do we need energy for?• synthesis (building)• reproduction• active transport (pumping)• movement• temperature control (making heat)
Where do we get energy?• Energy is stored in molecules
– carbohydrates, fats, proteins– Animals eat these– We digest food to get
• fuels for energy (ATP)• raw materials for building more molecules
What are the
monomers?
ATP
What is energy in biology?
Adenosine TriPhosphate
What do we need to make energy?
• The “furnace” for making energy– mitochondria
• Fuel– food
• carbohydrates, fats, proteins
• The Helpers– oxygen
• “aerobic”
– enzymesO2
