Question

Biological phosphorylation is the formation of

• A. $N_2$
• B. $C{O}_2$
• C. $ATP$
• D. $S{O}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $ATP$

Biological phosphorylation is of two types- protein phosphorylation and oxidative phosphorylation. In protein phosphorylation, the proteins get attached with a phosphate group. Oxidative phosphorylation is the metabolic pathway in which the mitochondria in cells use their structure, enzymes, and energy released by the oxidation of nutrients to reform ATP.
