ATP
ATP is shown to the left. To get energy from it you need to break off the phosphate groups.
ATP releases energy when you break off one phosphate group producing an ADP molecule.
ATP = Adenosine Triphosphate ADP = Adenosine Monophosphate
ATP releases energy when you break off one phosphate group producing an ADP molecule.
ATP = Adenosine Triphosphate ADP = Adenosine Monophosphate
Photosynthesis
Light Dependent ReactionsMain Reactions Include:
Light Absorption Breakdown of water Electron Transport Chain Movement of electrons through photosystem II, photosystem I, photosystem I, and NAPD reductase Chemiosmosis Movement of protons(Hydrogen atoms without electrons) through ATP synthase. Light Independent Reactions / Calvin Cycle (C3) |
