Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a form of ____ energy.
A
chemical
B
solar
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
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 triphosphate (ATP), energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. ATP captures chemical energy obtained from the breakdown of food molecules and releases it to fuel other cellular processes.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic compound that provides energy to drive many processes in living cells, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, condensate dissolution, and chemical synthesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -ATP hydrolysis is the catabolic reaction process by which chemical energy that has been stored in the high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is released after splitting these bonds, for example in muscles, by producing work in the form of mechanical energy.
