Question

Atp is an ideal energy source for cells because: select one:
a. Atp is a common means of providing energy that can be used in any energy-requiring process in cells
b. Three different phosphate groups all hold the same increment of energy, making it ideal to use repeatedly for cellular processes
c. Atp generation is a simple one step process to be generated from glucose
d. Atp coupling to endergonic processes allows for maximal energy loss

Answer 1

Answer:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP for short) is used to provide the energy for many cellular functions - by both animal and plant cells - as cells are unable to source their energy directly from sugars such as glucose. ... ATP itself is a small, soluble molecule which can be easily broken down and transported around the cell.
