1
Q
Adenosine triphosphate
A
- is an RNA nucleoside triphosphate.
- Contains adenine nitrogenous base linked to a ribose sugar, and 3 phosphate groups.
2
Q
Cellular energy currency
A
-ATP is the currency used because of HIGh energy bonds between the phosphate groups.
3
Q
Reaction coupling
A
- process of powering an energy-requiring reaction with an energy-releasing one.
- allows for an unfavorable reaction to be powered by a favorable one.
- net ΔG is negative (exergonic = releases energy + spontaneous).
