Overview of Energy Overview of Energy FormationFormation

Plants use sunlight to make food Plants use sunlight to make food (Carbohydrates, sugars, etc) This is (Carbohydrates, sugars, etc) This is stored energy thoughstored energy though

Then cellular respiration occurs in the Then cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria which takes the food and mitochondria which takes the food and breaks it down into usable energy, or breaks it down into usable energy, or ATPATP

What is ATP?What is ATP?

Adenosine Adenosine triphosphate- a triphosphate- a chemical compound chemical compound that can store and that can store and release energyrelease energy

How does ATP work?How does ATP work?

The energy in ATP lies in The energy in ATP lies in the bond between the the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate2nd and 3rd phosphate

If you break the bond If you break the bond and release the and release the phosphate energy is phosphate energy is released which leaves released which leaves you with ADPyou with ADP

If you add a phosphate If you add a phosphate to ADP you store energyto ADP you store energy
