Describe the structure and function of ATP?
Answers
hope its help u...........
ATP, which stands for adenosine triphosphate, is a biomolecule formed by a purine base (adenine), a sugar molecule (ribose) and three phosphate groups. Its main function is to store energy within the cell.
the description structur of ATP is as follows..
The ATP molecule is composed of three components. At the centre is a sugar molecule, ribose (the same sugar that forms the basis of RNA). Attached to one side of this is a base (a group consisting of linked rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms); in this case the base is adenine.
the function of ATP is as follows..
Function:
1) ATPs are used as the main energy source for metabolic functions.
2)They are consumed by energy-requiring (endothermic) processes and produced by energy-releasing (exothermic) processes in the cell.
