how does your body get energy? |
eating |
|
what does ATP do |
ATP breaks apart and releases energy |
|
ATPase? |
an enzyme that breaks off a phosphate group from the ATP molecule |
|
what happens to ATP when it breaks |
it releases energy and loses a phosphate group and is now ADP |
|
ADP does what |
uses and gains and extra phosphate and is recharged and turned back into ATP |
|
what happens to a phosphate bind when energy is released? |
phosphate bond is broken |
|
how do plants and algae use energy from sunlight |
to grow and make their own food |
|
when a plant combines the energy from sunlight with water and carbon dioxide what does it make |
sugar |
|
