Aerobic respiration of say seedlings with an intact cotyledon:
what happens between the energy produced in the reaction
C6H12O6 + 6O2 => 6CO2 + 6H2) + ATP
and the ATP releasing energy to drive biochemical activities?
Is energy produced and then converted to the ATP? Or is the energy stored as ATP? I'm a little confused in terms of the energy actually produced and the ATP.
Also what is the energy really used for? Besides cell division to promote growth of the seedling.
