Why can’t a cell use glucose directly for energy?
A cell cannot use glucose directly for energy
4
What is made from the energy released from glucose in respiration?
ATP

6
What is ATP classified as because it’s a modified nucleotide?
A nucleotide derivative
7
What happens to ATP once it’s made?
ATP diffuses to the part of the cell that needs energy
8
Where is the energy in ATP stored?
High-energy bonds between phosphate groups
