
Where does most energy originate
on this planet?

Take out your notes. We are starting
a new chapter.
8.1 Energy and ATP
Autotrophs and Heterotrophs

Energy that living things
need, originates from the
sun

Autotrophs- trap energy
from the sun to make
their own food

Heterotrophs- get their
energy by consuming
food (other organisms)
Chemical Energy and ATP


Energy comes in many forms

Light, heat, electricity and can be
stored in compounds

ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
stores energy in its bonds

Cells use it to store and release
energy
ATP

Consists of adenine, a 5-carbon sugar
(ribose) and three phosphate groups

The phosphates are key to storing energy
Question of knowing

ATP consists of what
three parts?
Answer

Adenine, a 5-carbon
sugar, and three
phosphates

ADP

Adenosine diphosphate
(ADP)


similar to ATP but only has
two phosphates.
When a cell wants to store
energy it adds a phosphate
to ADP to make ATP
ATP is like a Battery

Picture ATP as a charged battery

ATP provides the energy needed to
carry out many functions in the cell


ATP = 3 phosphates = stored energy

ADP = 2 phosphates = energy already
released
Releasing Energy
 Energy
stored in ATP is released by
taking away a phosphate
 ATP
can provide energy for active
transport, protein synthesis etc.
Question of Knowing

When a phosphate
is added to ADP, a
small amount of
energy is
__________.

When a phosphate
is removed from
ATP, energy is
__________.
Answer

Stored; Released
ATP use


ATP is constantly being used
and renewed in cells.

Only a small amount of ATP is
present in cells

Good for transferring and using
energy, but not great for storage
Most energy is stored in sugars
and starches and then broken
down into ATP when needed
