Hey its mike here and we had a very interesting class today. In the first part of class we just reveiwedthe organelles in a cell. Then class really got interesting when we went into a very complicated and hard process in which biochemical energy is made . The process turns glucose into ATP in the mitochondria. The glucose goes through many processes as you can see in the chart like first the krebs cycle which produces a little ATP and then the electron transport which produces a lot of ATP and energy for the cell to use. After this process to release energy the cell breaks the chemical bond of the second and third phosphates in ATP. This breaking of these chemical bonds creates a lot of energy and helps the cell do its job. well that is what we learned today in class bye.
