What processes in the body use atp
Oxidative phosphorylation, active transport, muscle contraction, endo and exo cytosis, building proteins
3 main metabolic pathways that transfer energy to atp
ATP-cp, phosphorylation via glycolytic pathways, oxidative phosphorylation
What process lets off phosphate as a bi product
Substrate level phosphorylation
Is ATP- CP anaerobic or aerobic
Anaerobic
