GenesGenes
About 1000 rungs of DNA make a single gene

StructureStructure
DNA – double helix– Contains T and not U
RNA– Single Stranded– Contains U and not T– mRNA, tRNA and rRNA

ATPATP
Adenosine TriPhosphateTransfers energy from energy releasing
reactions to energy-requiring reactions that maintain cellular activities

StructureStructure
3 phosphate groups attached to an adenosine molecule

Energy Transferring ReactionEnergy Transferring Reaction
Via hydrolysis, the last phosphate group is removed and releases energy
Produces ADP – adenosine Diphosphate
