Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
is stored in the bonds of an atp molecule
A
potential energy
B
adp
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The majority of energy in an ATP molecule is stored in the bond between the last and middle phosphate groups.

Detailed explanation-2: -ATP has potential energy in the bonds between the phosphates. If an ATP molecule is used, one phosphate is ‘broken’ off and so the bond between the phosphates is broken. There was energy stored in this bond, which is then used to do numerous kinds of things in your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -ATP stores energy within the bonds between phosphate groups, especially the second and third. This bond is a source of potential chemical energy, and it’s kind of like a compressed spring.

Detailed explanation-4: -The form of energy that is in ATP is called chemical energy. Chemical energy is a type of potential energy and is stored energy within chemical bonds. ATP, adenosine triphosphate, is a molecule with an adenine nucleotide attached to three phosphate groups. The bonds between the phosphate groups store the energy in ATP.

Detailed explanation-5: -Energy stored in bond of molecules is called chemical energy.
