Learning objective

C1.2.3—ATP ↔ ADP interconversions

New

• ATP hydrolysis to ADP and phosphate releases energy for coupled reactions • Respiration phosphorylates ADP to ATP; ATP is recycled rather than stored

Learning objective

C1.2.5—Anaerobic vs. aerobic respiration in humans

New

• Aerobic respiration uses oxygen and mitochondria, producing CO₂, water, and high ATP • Anaerobic respiration in human cytoplasm produces lactate and low ATP
