    The document contains 3 assignments. The first assignment explains the ATP-ADP cycle, describing how ATP acts as the "energy currency" of cells and how it is regenerated from ADP through the addition of a phosphate when the cell has excess energy. The second assignment lists the formulas for photosynthesis and cellular respiration. The third assignment fills in tables describing the major events and features of photosynthesis and cellular respiration, including reaction series, needed materials, and end products.

    Assignment

    1. Simply explain ATP-ADP Cycle.

    ATP (Adenosine tri-phosphate) is an important molecule found in all living things. Think of it as
    the “energy currency” of the cell. If a cell needs to spend energy to accomplish a task, the ATP
    molecule splits off one of its three phosphates, becoming ADP (Adenosine di-phosphate) +
    phosphate. The energy holding that phosphate molecule is now released and available to do
    work for the cell. When the cell has extra energy (gained from breaking down food that has
    been consumed or, in the case of plants, made via photosynthesis), it stores that energy by
    reattaching a free phosphate molecule to ADP, turning it back into ATP. The ATP molecule is just
    like a rechargeable battery. When it’s fully charged, it’s ATP. When it’s run down, it’s ADP.
    However, the battery doesn’t get thrown away when it’s run down–it just gets charged up again.

    2. List the formulas of photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

    CR: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (Glucose + 6 Oxygen → 6 Carbon Dioxide + 6 Water)
    P: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6+ 6O2 (6 Carbon Dioxide + 6 Water → Glucose + 6 Oxygen)

    3. Fill the tables bellow:
