3. The average human has a total of about 250 grams of ATP. But calculations of the ATP needed to pick up a bad of potato chips, walk from the kitchen to the living room, sit on the couch, open the bag, grab the TV remote, select a channel to watch, and eat the first hand full of chips requires roughly 105 kg of ATP! Even at rest, just breathing requires more ATP than a typical human has. How is this possible that humans can survive with so little ATP?

Modes of Nutrition

It is a biological process of providing or obtaining food that is necessary for growth and health. It includes many physiological processes - absorption, ingestion, assimilation, catabolism, excretion, etc. In biology, the science that deals with nutrition's physiological and chemical processes are called "nutritional science."
