Front | What are the uses of ATP |
---|---|
Back | Metabolic processes- Build up macromolecules (starch from glucose) Movement-Muscle contractions, filaments of muscle slide over one another Active transport- change shape of carrier protein Secretion- form lysosomes Activation of molecules- Inorganic phosphate released can be used to phosphorylate other compounds, lowering activation energy e.g. add phosphate to glucose at start of glycolysis |
