Glucose ATP The C-C and C-H bonds in glucose break, and that energy goes in to making a molecule called ATP! Lets see how ATP works in our bodies. Video 1 Video 2
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) Do we have any large springs to show the class like Dawn was telling us about? The last phosphate group is spring loaded!
ADP (Adenosine diphosphate) Release of ENERGY!!! P A + The spring is now loose and energy has been released!
+ ADP + P ATP Energy is Used by the Cell P Energy From C-C and C-H bonds in Glucose is added to make ATP
Assignment Create a 1 minute skit to explain how ATP is involved in Cellular Respiration to share with the class.
