Summary Introduction

To determine:

A situation on the basis of glucose breakdown, the scenario is; a cell has reached to a stage where all the ATPs of the cell have been broken into ADP and phosphate, later this cell is placed in a glucose solution. Will this cell be able to recover and survive.

Introduction:

For its vitality, the cell requires energy to keep its metabolic reactions ongoing. When a metabolic reaction takes place than the number of energy decreases and it gets converted into heat. Cells use a systematic path to capture chemical energy during glucose breakdown in presence of oxygen, cells store more than 35% of the chemical energy in the form of ATP molecules, and release rest energy in the form of heat.
