  1. Controlled Energy Flow • What is the safest way to get out of a 5 story building? • Walking down stairs • Jumping out the window • Why?

  2. Controlled Energy Flow • The reason why going down stairs is less dangerous is because the speed of the drop is controlled. • The fast, big drop is changed into smaller, slower drops. vs.

  3. The same thing happens in your body. • If you released all of the potential energy stored in matter at once, your body would light up in flames.

  4. How does your body release energy safely?

  5. The Function of ATP • When you digest food, your body transfers small packets of energy from the food that you ate to a biological molecule called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) which is located in the cell of a cytoplasm and are made by the mitochondria ATP ATP ATP ATP

  6. The Function of ATP • After all of the energy is squeezed out of the food that you ate and transferred to ATP molecules, the dead matter is excreted.

  7. The Function of ATP • ATP is found in every cell of your body. • Every cell in your body uses ATP to do work. • ATP is cellular energy. • Your body is entirely powered by ATP

  8. The Structure of ATP • ATP is made of: • Adenine (A) • Ribose (sugar) • 3 phosphates (P)

  9. The structure of ATP Prefixes: Mono 1 Di 2 Tri 3

  10. The Structure of ATP • Energy is stored in between the phosphate bonds.

  11. The Structure of ATP • When a phosphate is broken off of ATP, energy is released. • When a phosphate is released, what is left is now called ADP (di-2)

  12. ATP - ADP • Battery
