Why is ATP crucial to the cell?
|
|
ATP is the form of energy the cell needs for its activities.
|
|
|
ATP is the form of light needed for plants to produce glucose.
|
|
|
ATP comes from the breakdown of glucose in the mitochondria.
|
|
|
ATP forms from ADP and a phosphate group.

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -ATP hydrolysis provides the energy needed for many essential processes in organisms and cells. These include intracellular signaling, DNA and RNA synthesis, Purinergic signaling, synaptic signaling, active transport, and muscle contraction.
Detailed explanation-2: -It requires an input of energy to attach a phosphate to ADP and make ATP because ATP molecules are at a higher energy level than ADP. Attaching a phosphate to ADP creates an unstable or high-energy bond, and thus requires energy input.
