CELLS 1.4 Cellular Energy Requirements- Pre AP Biology Study Notes – New Syllabus.
LEARNING OBJECTIVE
CELLS 1.4(a) Explain the role of ATP in supporting processes in biological systems.
CELLS 1.4(b) Explain why different species demonstrate diverse energy and nutrient requirements.
CELLS 1.4(c) Use data to predict the energy requirements of diverse species.
Key Concepts:
- CELLS 1.4.1 Cells transfer and use energy from a variety of molecules in order to perform cellular functions.
a. ATP is a high-energy molecule used in the cell to carry out many cellular processes.
b. The amount of energy available to organisms from the breakdown of macromolecules varies based on their chemical composition.
CELLS 1.4.2 Because organisms have diverse ecological roles, they also have diverse energy requirements.
