Which of the following describes the critical role that ATP plays in cellular metabolism?
ATP serves an energy shuttle in the cell, coupling exergonic anf exergonic reactions.
The terminal phosphate group of ATP is attached by a particular strong covalent bond that releases extra energy when broken.
It is one of the four building blocks for RNA synthesis.
Hydrolysis of ATP provides energy to drive exergonic reactions in the cell.
Each ATP molecule contains about 1% of the amount of chemical energy available from the complete oxidation of a single glucose molecule. Cellular respiration produces about 38 ATP from one glucose molecule. What happens to the rest of the energy in glucose?
It is stored as fat.
It is converted to heat.
It is used to make water from hydrogen ions and oxygen.
It is released as carbon dioxide and water
It is converted to starch.

The oxidation of sugar during glycolysis The oxidation of pyruvate The Krebs Cycle Oxidative phosphorylationarrow_forwardWhich statement about NADH is true? It only functions in photosynthesis. It is a key electron carrier in redox reactions. It does not carry electrons. It binds with an acetyl group to form acetyl CoA. It is not involved in cellular respiration.arrow_forwardHow are ATP and NADH similar? They are interchangeable energy carriers, allowing the cell to use whichever molecule is in greatest abundance as a source of energy. They both act as electron carriers in the cell. Both compounds function as mobile energy carrier molecules in a cell. Both molecules are oxidized by molecular oxygen (O2) in reactions that release energy for use by the cell. Both ATP and NADH function as reducing agents in metabolic reactions.arrow_forward
