- Q1
What is a difference between ATP and ADP molecules?
ADP is only made in plants, while ATP is made in both plants and animals.
ADP can be used to directly power movement, while ATP cannot.
ATP has three phosphate groups, while ADP has two phosphate groups.
ATP molecules provide less energy to the cell than ADP molecules.
30s - Q2
Which of the following processes releases energy to be used by a cell?
A phosphate group is removed from ADP to form ATP.
A phosphate group is added to ADP to form ATP.
A phosphate group is added to ATP to form ADP.
A phosphate group is removed from ATP to form ADP.
30s - Q3
Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is
added to ATP to form ADP
added to ADP to form ATP
removed from ATP to form ADP
removed from ADP to form ATP
30s - Q4
What is added to ADP to form ATP?
A second phosphate group
A third ribose group
A second ribose group
A third phosphate group
30s - Q5
The immediate source of energy that powers a cell's activities is
adenosine triphosphate
adenosine diphosphate
30s - Q6
Which of the following releases energy?
Nutrients entering a cell through the cell membrane
Removing a phosphate group from an ATP molecule
Building sugar or starch molecules for long-term energy storage
Adding an additional phosphate group to an ADP molecule
30s - Q7
Food taken in by living organisms can be broken down and used to
build ATP molecules from ADP
break the bonds in starch molecules
build starch molecules from glucose
break down ATP molecules
30s - Q8
What molecules can be used for long-term energy storage?
Starch and ATP
ADP and ATP
Starch and fat
ADP and fat
30s - Q9
What type of molecule do plant cells use for long-term energy storage?
Starch
ADP
Fat
ATP
30s - Q10
What type of molecule do animal cells use for long-term energy storage?
Fat
ADP
Sugar
Starch
30s - Q11
How do starch and ATP store and supply energy?
Starch and ATP are both stable and store long-term energy.
Starch and ATP are both unstable and store short-term energy.
ATP is used for immediate energy and short-term storage, while starch molecules are stable and can be stored for a long time.
ATP is used for immediate energy and long-term storage, while starch molecules are unstable and can be stored for a short amount of time.
30s - Q12
Fat and ATP are different molecules that can both be described as molecules that store energy. Compare the functions of these molecules in terms of energy storage.
ATP molecules are made when where there is an excess amount of energy, while fat molecules are used immediately.
Fat molecules are unstable and can be stored short-term, while ATP molecules are stable and stored long term.
Fat molecules are stable and can be stored for a long time, while ATP is not.
ATP molecules are used for long-term storage, while fat is used for immediate energy.
30s - Q13
Why do cells use fat and starch for long-term energy storage instead of ATP molecules?
ATP is used for long-term storage, while fat and starch are used for immediate energy.
Fat and starch are stable if used as energy immediately, while ATP is used as long-term storage.
ATP is used for short-term energy and to build molecules of starch and fat.
Fat and starch are unstable and can be stored short-term, while ATP molecules are stable and stored long-term.
