- Date

- Summary
-
The energy expended in thinking or talking or moving or simply living must be supplied by fuel; this program outlines the kinds of fuel which a living being needs, and describes how this fuel is used by the cells, and how it is stored for future use. The function of adenosine triphosphate, an essential chemical compound in the metabolism of life, is explained, and models illustrating its functions display clearly how the compound is formed and reacts within the cell.
