IN CLASS:
- Objective: Know the role of ATP in cells
- Warm up:
>>> Look at the molecules ADP and ATP (you drew them for HW).
>>> What are the three types of molecules that make up ADP/ATP? What monomer do they look like that we studied at the beginning of the cells unit?
>>>How do cells make use of ATP? Which biomolecule is usually the source for the energy needed to make ATP from ADP?
>>>Why do cells not store very much ATP despite the fact that they need and use it constantly?
- Exam look back
- HW check
- Go over answers to HW
- Review chemical energy and ATP
HOMEWORK: Finish guided reading handout on 8-1 and 8-2
