1 Section 4.1: Chemical Energy and ATP Biology

2 Energy  All organisms require energy for their function

3 Energy  All organisms require energy for their function  Energy does not actually come from food

4 Energy  All organisms require energy for their function  Energy does not actually come from food  It comes from the release of energy from the breaking of chemical bonds

5 ATP: Adenosine-Triphosphate  Molecule that transfers energy from the breakdown of food molecules to cell processes

6 ATP: Adenosine-Triphosphate  Molecule that transfers energy from the breakdown of food molecules to cell processes  Cells use ATP to build molecules and to move materials by active transport

7 ATP

8 ATP  ADP  Energy is released when a phosphate group is removed from ATP

9 ATP  ADP  Energy is released when a phosphate group is removed from ATP  ATP then becomes ADP (adenosine di- phosphate)

10 ADP  ATP  Adding a phosphate group to ADP will turn ADP into ATP

11 ADP  ATP  Adding a phosphate group to ADP will turn ADP into ATP  ATP is a renewable resource

12 ADP  ATP  Adding a phosphate group to ADP will turn ADP into ATP  ATP is a renewable resource  Making ATP is a complex process that involves many proteins

14 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP

15 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP  Food must be digested so that it can be broken down

16 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP  Food must be digested so that it can be broken down  The amount of ATP is related to the number of calories in food, but not directly

17 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP  Food must be digested so that it can be broken down  The amount of ATP is related to the number of calories in food, but not directly  The amount of ATP is dependent upon the molecules being broken down

18 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP  Food must be digested so that it can be broken down  The amount of ATP is related to the number of calories in food, but not directly  The amount of ATP is dependent upon the molecules being broken down  Carbohydrate, lipid, protein

19 Carbon Molecules Into ATP  The food you eat does not contain ATP  Food must be digested so that it can be broken down  The amount of ATP is related to the number of calories in food, but not directly  The amount of ATP is dependent upon the molecules being broken down  Carbohydrate, lipid, protein  Carbohydrate is most common

20 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP

21 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP  ~ 36 ATP per glucose molecule

22 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP  ~ 36 ATP per glucose molecule  Lipids/Triglycerides

23 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP  ~ 36 ATP per glucose molecule  Lipids/Triglycerides  ~146 ATP per triglyceride

24 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP  ~ 36 ATP per glucose molecule  Lipids/Triglycerides  ~146 ATP per triglyceride  Protein is generally not used to make ATP

25 Different Foods Different #s  Carbohydrates are most likely to be broken down for ATP  ~ 36 ATP per glucose molecule  Lipids/Triglycerides  ~146 ATP per triglyceride  Protein is generally not used to make ATP  Amino acids are used to make proteins

26 Plants And ATP  Plants use photosynthesis to produce sugars that are then broken down into ATP

27 No Light? No Problem…  Not all organisms can use light to make ATP

28 No Light? No Problem…  Not all organisms can use light to make ATP  For example: bacteria that live at the bottom of the ocean

29 No Light? No Problem…  Not all organisms can use light to make ATP  For example: bacteria that live at the bottom of the ocean  Chemosynthesis: process by which some organisms use chemical energy to make energy storing molecules

30 No Light? No Problem…  Not all organisms can use light to make ATP  For example: bacteria that live at the bottom of the ocean  Chemosynthesis: process by which some organisms use chemical energy to make energy storing molecules  Raw materials differ, but the process is similar
