Answer:
Explanation:
ATP can be described as the unit for energy. Cellular processes that can involve ATP/energy are
1) Respiration: This involves the cells obtaining ATP by means of combining oxygen and glucose.
2) Metabolism: This is the building up (anabolism) and breakdown down (catabolism) process. Generally, anabolism requires ATP while catabolism releases ATP.
3) Active transport: This requires ATP to move substances or molecules across the cell membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration.
4) DNA replication: ATP is required to sustain replication of DNA at the replication fork during.
5) processes in the cell cycle: ATP is required for the S phase and the mitotic phase of the cell cycle.
6) Ion transport: Ion transport also requires the use of ATP to transport ions across the membrane of cells
