Solution
The correct option is A 1940
The ATP- ADP system is present in the inner mitochondrial membrane and produces ATP through the chemiosmotic mechanism, first proposed by Peter Mitchell.
ATP was discovered in 1929 by Karl Lohmann and co-workers. ATP was proposed to be the main energy transfer molecule in the cell by Fritz Albert Lipmann in 1940, that is, being the intermediary molecule between energy-yielding (exergonic) and energy-requiring (endergonic) reactions.
