EBIO 1210 EXAM 2 QUESTIONS WITH CORRECT ANSWERS
Where does energy go in an ecosystem? -- Answer ✔✔ Heat, growth, reproduction,
etc. as energy flows up trophic levels
ATP -- Answer ✔✔ a nucleotide, (adenosine triphosphate)
Creation of ATP -- Answer ✔✔ A = adenine
A + Ribose = adenosine
adenosine mono-phosphate (AMP)
adenosine di-phosphate (ADP)
adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP)
How does ATP get energy? -- Answer ✔✔ ATP takes the energy released from the
breakdown of energy-rich food molecules and does cellular work
Phosphorylated -- Answer ✔✔ (=energized!) molecule
How do motor proteins do mechanical work? -- Answer ✔✔ High-energy P is
transferred to the protein
