Detailed explanation-1: -Adenosine 5’-triphosphate, or ATP, is the principal molecule for storing and transferring energy in cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a nucleic acid compound comprising three phosphate groups, ribose sugar, and an adenine nitrogenous base.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is the creation of ATP from ADP using energy from sunlight, and occurs during photosynthesis. ATP is also formed from the process of cellular respiration in the mitochondria of a cell. This can be through aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen, or anaerobic respiration, which does not.
Detailed explanation-4: -ATP consists of a ribose sugar with a purine called Adenine attached to its 1’ position and three phosphate groups attached to the 6’ position by a phosphodiester bond. ATP is a nucleic acid by nature.
