How much ATP is produced per molecule of CP (creatine phosphate) in the ATP-CP system?

  1. 1 ATP

  2. 2 ATP

  3. 3 ATP

  4. 38 ATP

The correct answer is: 1 ATP

The ATP-CP system is a short-term energy system that uses creatine phosphate (CP) to produce ATP. When it comes to ATP production, every molecule of CP can only produce one molecule of ATP. This is why choice A, 1 ATP per molecule of CP, is the correct answer. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they suggest that more than one molecule of ATP can be produced from a single molecule of CP, which is not the case. This highlights the importance of replenishing CP stores in order to maintain ATP levels during intense physical activity.
