ATP is a suitable energy source because it releases a small, manageable amount of energy instantly, is rapidly resynthesized, can phosphorylate compounds to increase reactivity, and remains within the cell.
ATP is een energiebron die in veel celprocessen wordt gebruikt. Geef twee manieren waarop ATP een geschikte energiebron is voor cellen om te gebruiken. (2 punten)
| Front | ATP is an energy source used in many cell processes. Give two ways in which ATP is a suitable energy source for cells to use. ( 2 marks) |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Releases relatively small amount of energy / little energy lost as heat; 2. Releases energy instantaneously; 3. Phosphorylates other compounds, making them more reactive; 4. Can be rapidly re-synthesised; 5. Is not lost from/does not leave cells; |
