Energy is the ability to do work! For example, your car needs gas to run but……
Living things need energy to survive as well.
This energy comes from food. The energy in most food comes from the sun.
Where do plants get the energy they need to produce food?

Chemical Energy and ATP
Chemical Energy and ATP
Energy comes in many forms including light, heat, and electricity.
Energy can be stored in chemical compounds, too.
For example, When you light a candle, the wax melts, soaks into the wick, and is burned, releasing energy in the form of light and heat.

Chemical Energy and ATP
Living things use chemical fuels as well.
One of the principal compounds that cells use to store and release energy is
Adenosine Triophosphate (ATP).

ATP consists of:
• adenine
• ribose (a 5-carbon sugar)
• 3 phosphate groups

Chemical Energy and ATP
Storing Energy
ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) looks very similar to ATP except it has 2 phosphate groups.
A cell can store small amounts of energy by adding a phosphate group to ADP.

Chemical Energy and ATP
The energy from ATP is needed for many cellular activities, including active transport across cell membranes, protein synthesis and muscle contraction.
ATP’s characteristics make it exceptionally useful as the basic energy source of all cells.
For example, a Warrior Athlete!
