What is energy?
1. Ultimately what is the source of energy for all living things? sunlight
2. How is energy trapped by plants? Photosynthesis uses light to combine water and carbon dioxide
3. How do animals obtain energy? Break down organic molecules to release the energy in them
4. What are the different forms of energy? Light heat sound electrical magnetic mechanical chemical atomic
5. What is energy measured in? joules (J)6. Why would it be wrong to say a plant produces
energy? Cannot create or destroy energy – just change it from one form to another
7. What does transduction mean? Changing energy from one form to another e.g. in photosynthesis light chemical

ATP contains a sugar (ribose), a base (adenine) and three phosphate groups.
+ ++ 30.5 kJ
ATP H2O ADPinorganic
phosphate
When ATP is hydrolysed to form ADP and inorganic phosphate, 30.5 kJ of energy are released.
How does ATP store energy?
• ATP = adenosine triphosphate• What breaks an ATP molecule to
release energy?• What are the products called?• Why does it break up so easily?• What type of reaction is involved?
Why ATP?Biological systems transfer the energy in glucose to ATP because unlike glucose…
ATP releases its energy instantly in a single reaction.
The hydrolysis of ATP releases a small amount of energy, ideal for fuelling reactions in the body.

Speed energy becomes available

Amount of energy released
Too much – cell would burn
Just right for the energy needed for another reaction in a cell
Reactivity of compound unreactive Reactive – breaks down easily
Size of molecule and its consequences
Small – upsets osmosis in a cell and can leak out through cell membrane by facilitated diffusion
Larger – less effect on osmosis and trapped within cell membrane
What is respiration?
Respiration is the process by which organisms extract the energy stored in complex molecules and use it to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
ATP provides the immediate source of energy for biological processes such as active transport, movement and metabolism.
In this way they obtain energy to fuel their metabolic pathways.
ATP
The addition of an inorganic phosphate group (Pi) to a molecule like ADP is called phosphorylation. ADP is phosphorylated during respiration.
Two types of phosphorylation occur during respiration:
1. Substrate-level: glycolysis & Krebs cycleA single reaction involving the direct transfer of a phosphate group from a donor molecule to ADP.
2. Oxidative: electron transport chain
A series of oxidation reactions that produce sufficient energy to form ATP from ADP and phosphate.
Phosphorylation of ADP
Adenosine triphosphate and phs
Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is an important molecule found in all living cells. It readily diffuses around the cell and provides energy for cellular processes.
ATP releases energy in the light-independent reaction when a bond between inorganic phosphate groups is broken, producing ADP and an inorganic phosphate group.
adenine
ribose
3 phosphate groups
ATP is made in the light-dependent reaction in photosynthesis from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and an inorganic phosphate group (Pi). This requires energy.
Adding a phosphate molecule is phosphorylation. In this case, light is used as an energy source so the process is called photophosphorylation.
In the light-dependent reaction:
+ ®+ energy
In the light-independent reaction:
The use of water makes this a hydrolysis reaction.

How is ATP synthesised? P.30
• What type of reaction reforms ATP?• Photophosphorylation – in
photosynthesis• Oxidative phosphorylation – in
respiration in the electron transport chain
• Substrate level phosphorylation – in respiration when an inorganic phosphate is provided from the substrates of respiration
What is the role of ATP in biological processes?
• This is a very well used exam question for 3 marks.
• Active transport• Synthesising large molecules e.g. protein• Energy for filaments to slide past each
other in muscle contraction• Activation of molecules e.g. glucose in
glycolysis• Something specific to the type of cell in
the question e.g. liver cell = production of bile
• Mitosis
Coupled reactions
• Energy released in one reaction is used up in the other
• Some energy is always lost as heat
