Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The structure of ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, consisting of a nitrogenous base (adenine), a ribose sugar, and three serially bonded phosphate groups.
Detailed explanation-2: -Adenine; C5H5N5; is a nucleotide in DNA/ RNA and is part of ATP. It is attached to Thymine in DNA/RNA. It is a base in ATP and helps phosphorylize molecules. adenine is a pueine with a variety of roles in biochemistry.
Detailed explanation-3: -Under normal circumstances, the nitrogen-containing bases adenine (A) and thymine (T) pair together, and cytosine (C) and guanine (G) pair together. The binding of these base pairs forms the structure of DNA .
