Describe what must come together in order for atp to be made
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
To make ATP, cells must join together ADP & a phosphate using energy from food. A phosphate is removed from an ATP molecule in order to provide energy for the cell. Thus, the ATP molecule turns into an ADP molecule. We eat food which gives us energy to add another phosphate group to the ADP molecule, turning it into an ATP molecule. The cycle then begins again.

In the absence of oxygen, a yeast cell undergoes fermentation and uses 100 molecules of glucose. How much net ATP will be genera
vredina [299]

Answer:

200 ATP molecules

Explanation:

Yeast is a fungus that undergoes fermentation instead of cellular respiration when there is an absence of oxygen. In the fermentation process undergone by yeast, which produces an alcohol as product (alcohol fermentation), two (2) ATP molecules are produced as net ATP.

However, if a yeast cell undergoes fermentation and uses 100 molecules of glucose, the yeast cell will generate a net ATP of 2 × 100 molecules = 200 molecules.
