Phototrophs generate ATP by converting sunlight energy into chemical energy stored in glucose bonds, which is then oxidized to release ATP-bound energy.
Los fotótrofos generan ATP convirtiendo la energía de la luz solar en energía química almacenada en los enlaces de la glucosa, que luego se oxida para liberar energía enlazada al ATP.
| Front | What are the steps for phototrophs to generate ATP? |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Energy from sunlight converted into chemical energy stored in bonds of glucose 2. microbes must oxidize (breakdown) glucose and convert into high-energy bonds of ATP |
