Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 10.37 Energy, ATP, and Coupled Reactions skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Use the final systems model. Which statement best synthesizes the relationship among energy input, ATP, and cellular work?

ACells create energy in ATP from nothing and release it without pathways.

BATP is unrelated to nutrients, light, or cellular work.

CCellular work occurs only when ATP is stored permanently and never hydrolyzed.

DCells transfer energy from nutrients or light into ATP, then couple ATP hydrolysis to specific work processes.

Solution & Explanation:The model summarizes energy flow: cells capture energy from food or light, regenerate ATP, and then couple ATP hydrolysis to transport, chemical, and mechanical work.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A cell's ATP level falls sharply after an electron transport inhibitor is added, even though glucose is still present. Which explanation best connects this to coupled reactions?

AGlucose can directly power every endergonic reaction without ATP or enzymes.

BATP-coupled processes become more efficient when ATP is scarce.

CLess ATP regeneration limits ATP-coupled processes such as active transport and biosynthesis.

DThe inhibitor makes all passive diffusion stop immediately.

Solution & Explanation:If ATP regeneration falls, the cell has less ATP to hydrolyze and couple to cellular work. ATP-dependent processes become harder to maintain.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Use the three-step activation diagram. Which label correctly identifies the activated intermediate?

AATP before it enters the enzyme

BSubstrate-P after phosphate transfer from ATP

CADP after it leaves the enzyme

DUnchanged substrate before any reaction

Solution & Explanation:The activated intermediate is the substrate after receiving a phosphate group. That intermediate can proceed to products through a more favorable route.
