This morning you decided to cook yourself a breakfast burrito that contained eggs and bacon. Explain to your neighbor or LA why you should not pour the left over hot bacon grease (animal fat) down the drain, but you can pour the left over hot olive oil (plant fat) from the eggs you made down the drain. Use the terms saturated, unsaturated, hydrocarbon, and intermolecular interactions. How does this relate to membrane fluidity

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.
