Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which molecule isn’t an energy carrier?
A
FADH2
B
NADH
C
oxygen
D
ATP
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: -FADH2: High energy electron carrier used to transport electrons generated in Glycolysis and Krebs Cycle to the Electron Transport Chain.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose (C6H12O6, ) is a nearly universal fuel delivered to cells, and the primary product of photosynthesis. ATP molecules store smaller amounts of energy and are used within cells to do work. Chlorophyll and NADPH molecules hold energy temporarily during the process of photosynthesis.
