Question

What are the parts of ATP?

Answer 1

ATP:

1. The organic component adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a hydrotrope that provides energy to a range of processes in living cells, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, condensate dissolving, and chemical synthesis.
2. ATP is the "money in molecular form" for intracellular energy transfer, and it can be found in all known forms of life. It converts to either adenosine diphosphate or adenosine monophosphate when absorbed in metabolic processes.
3. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleoside triphosphate, which means it comprises of three parts:
   • A nitrogenous base
   • Ribose sugar
   • Three serially bonded phosphate groups.
