Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A high-energy storing molecule in cells; composed of one adenosine molecule (adenine and ribose sugar) and three phosphate groups, which are present in all living organisms and are used to fuel activities within a cell.
A
ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
B
ADP (adenosine diphosphate)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the source of energy for use and storage at the cellular level. 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: -Adenosine 5’-triphosphate, or ATP, is the most abundant energy carrier molecule in cells. This molecule is made of a nitrogen base (adenine), a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups.

Detailed explanation-3: -The correct option: The energy stored in a molecule of ATP in d. In the bonds connecting the two terminal phosphate groups.

Detailed explanation-4: -The correct answer is (C). The majority of energy in an ATP molecule is stored in the bond between the last and middle phosphate groups.

Detailed explanation-5: -The cell has a special kind of molecule for storing that energy, and it’s called ATP. ATP (Adenosine tri-phosphate) is an important molecule found in all living things. Think of it as the “energy currency” of the cell.
