A 70 kg adult could meet her/his entire energy needs for a day by eating 3 moles of glucose (540 g; molecular weight of glucose is 180 g/mol). Each molecule of glucose generates approximately 36 molecules of ATP when oxidized to CO2. The concentration of ATP in cells is about 5mM, and a 70 kg adult has about 25 liters of intracellular fluid. A. Given that the ATP concentration remains constant in cells, calculate how many times per day, on average, each ATP molecule in the body is hydrolyzed and resynthesized. Show calculations.
