Question

what is mean by ATP
pls pls pls answer detailly

Answer 1

Adenosine triphosphate

Answer 2

ATP means adenosine triphosphate. An organic compound, C10H16N5O13P3, that is composed of adenosine and three phosphate groups. It serves as a source of energy for many metabolic processes. ATP releases energy when it is broken down into ADP by hydrolysis during cell metabolism.
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is thought of as the "molecular currency" for energy transfer within the cell.
Function:
ATPs are used as the main energy source for metabolic functions. They are consumed by energy-requiring (endothermic) processes and produced by energy-releasing (exothermic) processes in the cell. It does this by giving either losing or gaining a phosphate group.
ATP (high energy)
⇔
ADP (low energy)
The pair is ADP (adenosine diphosphate) with two phosphates and ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Energy is transferred as a matter of how many phosphate group the molecules have. ATP energizes the endothermic process thus becoming ADP. While ADP can take up energy from an exothermic process and gain a phosphate (phosphorylated) to become ATP.
Structure:
ATP is made up of an one adenosine - ribose sugar and adenine - that is attached to three phosphate group (triphosphate).
