Verified step by step guidance

Understand the process of ATP synthesis: ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is synthesized by adding a phosphate group to ADP (adenosine diphosphate). This process is crucial for storing and transferring energy in cells.

Identify the types of phosphorylation: There are different types of phosphorylation processes, including substrate-level phosphorylation, oxidative phosphorylation, and others.

Focus on substrate-level phosphorylation: This type of phosphorylation involves the direct transfer of a phosphate group from a substrate molecule to ADP, forming ATP. It occurs in the cytoplasm during glycolysis and in the mitochondria during the Krebs cycle.

Differentiate from oxidative phosphorylation: Oxidative phosphorylation involves the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis, where ATP is synthesized using energy derived from the transfer of electrons in the mitochondria.

Conclude with the correct type: Based on the description of the process involving an enzyme transferring a phosphate group directly to ADP, the correct type of phosphorylation is substrate-level phosphorylation.
