Answer:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. ATP captures chemical energy obtained from the breakdown of food molecules and releases it to fuel other cellular processes.

Cells require chemical energy for three general types of tasks: to drive metabolic reactions that would not occur automatically; to transport needed substances across membranes; and to do mechanical work, such as moving muscles. ATP is not a storage molecule for chemical energy; that is the job of carbohydrates, such as glycogen, and fats. When energy is needed by the cell, it is converted from storage molecules into ATP. ATP then serves as a shuttle, delivering energy to places within the cell where energy-consuming activities are taking place.

May this will halp uhh

Adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, is a crucial chemical present in all living organisms and serves as the cell's primary source of energy.

Adenosine triphosphate:

  • At the cellular level, energy is used and stored as adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
  • Adenine, ribose, and three serially bound phosphate groups make up the structure of ATP, which is a nucleoside triphosphate.
  • The hydrotrope and organic complex adenosine triphosphate powers a variety of biological functions in living cells, including muscular contraction, nerve impulse transmission, condensate dissolving, and chemical synthesis.

The function of adenosine triphosphate:

  • The main molecule for storing and transferring energy in cells is adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP).
  • It is frequently referred to as the cell's energy currency and is like the money that is kept in a bank.
  • The ATP molecule splits off one of its three phosphates when a cell has to expend energy to complete a task, resulting in the formation of ADP (Adenosine di-phosphate) + phosphate.
  • That phosphate molecule's energy is no longer bound to it and can now be used by the cell to perform tasks.
