Pregunta 16
Pregunta
The enzyme responsible for making ATP is [blank_start]ATP[blank_end] [blank_start]synthase[blank_end].
Pregunta 17
Pregunta
How does ATP differ from other energy storage molecules, such as starch or glycogen?
Respuesta
-
It's a less stable molecule, so not used for long-term storage.
-
It is known as the universal energy currency because it releases energy in greater quantities.
-
Energy release from ATP is a multi-step process.
-
ATP is a polymer which has only one type of monomer.

Respuesta
-
Hydrolysis
-
Condensation
-
Polymerisation
-
Combustion
