Since AMP can also be hydrolyzed to release energy, why do cells bother to use ATP (which requires the cell to have more phosphate) to power cellular reactions?
Question 1 options:
a. ATP fits better into enzymes. |
|
b. ATP hydrolysis releases more energy than AMP hydrolysis. |
|
c. ATP stores for a longer time than AMP. |
|
d. Cells have more than enough phosphate, and it serves few roles anyway. |

We have seen all term that cells use the hydrolysis of high energy phosphate from ATP to make metabolic reactions thermodynamically favorable. Whereas most enzymes that utilize ATP hydrolyze between the b and g phosphates (yielding ADP + Pi), some enzymes hydrolyze ATP between the a and b phosphates (yielding AMP and PPi). ∆G°’ of phosphate hydrolysis is -31 kJ/mol for ATP + H2O --> ADP + Pi, and ∆G°’ of phosphate hydrolysis is -46.5 kJ/mol for ATP + H2O...
Problem 7. (ATP) In the human body, hydrolysis of ATP molecules (shown below) releases energy. During hydrolysis one of the three phosphate groups is broken off to give ADP, and a phosphate group, with the release of energy. Organisms make use of this energy to perform various biological functions.

Which of the following statements about Huntington's is true? You can retry this question, the average of your two answers is recorded. You should see feedback if you get a question wrong. O a. The mutated allele(s) has/have lost the function of keeping brain cells healthy, and is/are therefor a dominant disease O b. Huntington is a very rare and therfor recessive. c. Huntington strikes people after reproductive age and is therefor dominant. d. The mutated allele(s) has/have gained the...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
