• ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate):

  • Central metabolism molecule
  • Product of respiration
  • Aerobic: [C_6H_12O_6 —> (6CO_2 + 6H_2O) + 38 ATP]
  • Anaerobic [C_6H_12O_6 —> lactic acid + 2 ATP]
  • Energy source in all living cells
  • Cannot be transported around body
  • Gives up energy quickly, (‘universal energy carrier’ / ‘energy currency’)
  • Never accumulate only stored for few minutes
  • Continuously reproduced
  • Human cell consumes 10mil ATP per second
  • 40 trillion cells in human
  • 60-100kg of ATP used daily
  • Contains 60g of ATP produced once or twice a minute
