Summary
Bioenergetics is the process of ATP and cellular respiration. Adenosine triphosphate or ATP, is a combined phosphate molecule it contains 3 in total and when the end of the phosphate is reached energy is released. ATP is broken down to form ADP with a phosphate group attached to it, but the group can be brought together again to form ATP again. ATP's purpose is to transport energy and give energy to cells. Then there is cellular respiration, and it creates ATP when given energy to create the molecule. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose and oxygen, to make carbon dioxide and water. Cellular respiration happens in three stages each stage releases more energy from itself. The first place is the cytoplasm, than glucose molecules are broken down into glycolysis then the ATP are ensembles to make energy, Then the final bioenergetics is the mitochondria which is the outer of the eukaryotic cells which we talked about in Basic Biological Processes. The mitochondria has to membranes the outer membrane separates it from the rest of the cell, while the inner membrane is folded over many times. Mitochondria has a matrix where it helps break down process like glucose. The mitochondria has a process of taking ions and making ATP and ADP out of the molecules that it has in its matrix. So Bioenergetics is a whole process of ATP in Cellular respiration and the use of the mitochondria to get energy through the cell.

What you can do to learn more about Photosynthesis is go onto google scholar and look up articles about how photosynthesis works. You can go on YouTube and search up photosynthesis and Biochemistry and everything works that could help you. You can look on this page and take notes on a piece of paper on whats going on because that can help writing things don so you actually remember the stuff you were reading about.
