ATP Teacher Resources

The main concepts behind how ATP transfers energy are explained in this Ap Biology PowerPoint. The diagrams convey the information that students need for any test regarding phosphorylation. The steps are clear, and should help...

Critical thinking is required to answer these five questions on cellular respiration. Advanced biology learners consider transport across the mitochondrial membrane and the metabolic pathway in ATP synthesis. 

In this biology worksheet, scholars color and label the chemiosmosis process and complete four short answer questions on ATP synthesis.

Take charge of your biology class by using this exciting analogy to relate the ATP process with batteries. Pupils use batteries and rubber bands to simulate the phosphate bonds between molecules in the body. They measure the distance in...

If you've ever felt a little drained ... try converting some ATP to ADP! Science scholars perform one of life's most important reactions using a simulated lab workbench. The fun-to-use interactive allows pupils to control the reactants...

Here is accessible, understandable information about ADP and ATP. By explaining how ATP is hydrolyzed, Sal Khan is able to demonstrate how energy is released into a cell.

Young children often appear to have endless amounts of energy. The interactive describes where energy comes from and how bodies turn food into a usable energy source. The comparison of ATP to a rechargeable battery helps pupils remember...

Storing and transferring energy is explained here with reference to the fight or flight response, along with the need for activity in times of lowered nutrition. This is a great summary of ATP applications, and after the multiple stages...

In this second video, viewers learn the structure of ATP, then watch how our bodies use ATP to provide us with the energy we need at the cellular level. At the end, they learn how all organisms in life, even from the...

The Krebs cycle is the focus of a video that shows how ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is made by the body through the complex processes of glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain. 

Hans Krebs won the Nobel Prize for his discovery of what scientists now know as the Krebs cycle. Named after him, the Krebs cycle exists as only one system of the larger set, working together to keep human bodies functioning. The...

Young scholars study four different types of ATP production and the important role it plays in normal everyday production, where ATP is formed. They will explore the role, functions and conditions that ATP is produced.

Students explore the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. In this photosynthesis and respiration lesson plan, students learn about the role of the chloroplasts in photosynthesis and about the role of mitochondria in respiration...

Wow, the human body is complex! The video explores the importance of oxygen, beginning with exploring why it is needed in combustion and then moving into an organism's need for oxygen. Learners see how glucose, when combined with oxygen,...

What will give you more energy than caffeine? ATP. An illustrative video clearly explains cellular respiration using cartoon graphics. It includes the three major steps of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chains.

In this cell energy worksheet, students review how ATP is formed and broken down and the uses of cell energy. This worksheet has 8 fill in the blank and 2 short answer questions.

In this biology worksheet, students explain where the energy of food originally came from. Then the explain one of the principal chemical compounds that living things use to store energy. Students also describe how ATP and ADP differ and...

Survey the metabolism process from respiration through the production of the ATP molecule with this seven page AP biology worksheet. Pupils write short answers on the lines provided and label a diagram of the cellular respiration...

To take one step, the body uses about 200 muscles. In the video, learners see the difference between the three types of muscles found in the human body—skeletal/striated, smooth, and cardiac. The instructor then explains, in detail, how...

All life requires energy ... and the connection between energy and plant life typically requires photosynthesis. Scholars explore photosynthesis in depth from ATP/ADP through the Calvin cycle. A helpful presentation highlights concepts...

Three lab guides are given here that detail experiments to illustrate the oxidation of glucose for the production of ATP. The first will compare photosynthesis and respiratio and show theimporatnce of both to plants. The next will show...

Meet adorable, animated chloroplasts as they produce glucose with the help of the sun. Viewers learn how carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and electrons are combined to form carbohydrates with an engaging video. The narrator also explains how...

Organelles, cellular respiration, ATP, and DNA. The passage attached to this life science reading comprehension worksheet is all about cells. After reading about diffusion and osmosis, kids answer a series of questions based on the text.

ATP — it's everywhere! The video describes aerobic and anaerobic respiration, how the processes of glycolysis, the Kreb cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain work inside the cells to produce ATP, and ends with a discussion about...
