what are the 3 mechanisms that bacteria and archaea use to make ATP?
|
1-substrate level phosphorylation-transfer hi energy P from phosphorylated organic to adp=atp
2-respiration- oxidizing reduced e- donors coupled with reduction of e- acceptors REDOX 3-photophosphorylation-use light energy to make chg seperation to make ATP - REDOX |
|
