Environmental Science 4.09 Mid Term Survey
1. List three natural resources we have studied this semester.
2. What is the difference between renewable and nonrenewable resources?
3. Why is a perpetual resource considered renewable?
4. Briefly describe 3 ways you and your family could minimize solid waste. (Remember: recycle,
reuse and renew!)
5. What accounts for most of the solid waste in a landfill? (See 4.06 Case Study)

Atp is is our little "pocket" of energy. of course, if you have too little, then it means you have too little energy, and you'll pass out. the way to not have enough, is to have no energy sources (glucose, fats, proteins). you can't have too many atp molecules. cycles like the krebs cycle produce it, but if you have too much of any substrate (or too little for that matter), the cycle stops and atp is no longer made (it stops until substrate levels are such that the process can go on). in any case, this is unlikely since atp is constantly hydrolyzed and remade, even while you're asleep. you won't have too much. if you have zero, you are dead or dying.
