…adp-atp - 273 b Atp to adp + p Glycogen stored in muscles breaks down to glucose. Glucose then goes into the reactions of glycolysis, the krebs cycle, and the cytochrom system. Through these complex chemical reactions 36/38 atp's are built up from 1 molecule of glucose. Creatin phospahte will give up A ''P" to ADP to reform ATP if needed. This only is a temporary way to rebuild ATP. The enzyme that drives this reaction is Creating Phosphokinase.
