What is the function of ATP in living things?
A
provides energy for cells
B
stores genetic information
C
provides structure in the nucleus
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -ATP hydrolysis provides the energy needed for many essential processes in organisms and cells. These include intracellular signaling, DNA and RNA synthesis, Purinergic signaling, synaptic signaling, active transport, and muscle contraction.

Detailed explanation-2: -ATP is able to power cellular processes by transferring a phosphate group to another molecule (a process called phosphorylation). This transfer is carried out by special enzymes that couple the release of energy from ATP to cellular activities that require energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the primary energy carrier in all living organisms on earth. Microorganisms capture and store energy metabolized from food and light sources in the form of ATP. When the cell requires energy, ATP is broken down through hydrolysis.

Detailed explanation-4: -ATP is Adenosine Triphosphate. It functions as the power house of the cell, providing energy to the cell for its various functions. Q.
