ATP is a molecule made up of 3 phosphate molecules and one nitrogenous base. there is a high energy bond between the 3rd and 2nd phosphate, which can be broken down into ADP + P this is a reversible reaction.

∙ 15y agoATP has three components joined like this:
adenine - ribose - P - P - P [P = phosphate group]
Adenine is a nitrogenous (purine) base found in both DNA and RNA.
Ribose is the pentose sugar found in every nucleotide residue of RNA.
The bonds joining the phosphate groups are both high-energy bonds, and release a particularly large amount of energy when hydrolyzed.
Adenine + ribose = adenosine; hence the name ATP, which stands for adenosine triphosphate.

∙ 13y agoATP is a specific nucleotide. The ATP is adenine with 3 phosphate groups attached. So in ored it would be the adenine, ribose, then the 3 phosphate groups. The ATP stands for adenosine triophosphate. The ATP is energy delivery molecules for almost all biochemical systems.

What is the function of mitochondria in eukayotic organisms?
the mitochondria has a double membrane structure that provides adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the ATP is a molecule that provides energy to the organisms.
Does the nucleic acid ATP function as an energy carrier in the cell?
ATP
How does cyanide inhibit mitochondrial function?
ATP decreases
What is the function of ATP energy?
To do cell work.
What is ihe function of oxysomes of mitochondria?
The function of oxysome is to act as ATP synthase enzyme.
Which of the following is false about the structure and function of ATP synthase?
At least 10 protons pass through ATP synthase in order to make a molecule of ATP.
What is the function of mitochondria in eukayotic organisms?
the mitochondria has a double membrane structure that provides adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the ATP is a molecule that provides energy to the organisms.
How does the structure affect its function?
The mitochondrial structure affects its function because in its inner membrane, the cristae (folds) allow for more surface area which increases the amount of ATP that can be produced by the mitochondria.
How does a mitochondrions structure affect its function?
Abnormal death of the cells due to dysfunction of mitochondria can affect its function.
How does the mitochondrion affects it structure?
The mitochondrial structure affects its function because in its inner membrane, the cristae (folds) allow for more surface area which increases the amount of ATP that can be produced by the mitochondria.
Which biomolecule is part of the structure of ATP nucleotides and nucleic acids?
Ribose is part of the structure of ATP nucleotides and nucleic acids.
What is ATP what is its function?
ATP is known as Adenosine TriPhosphate. Hence the abbreviation ATP. ATP is produced by the ribosome in a cell. ATP is energy for the cell.
Does the nucleic acid ATP function as an energy carrier in the cell?
ATP
How is the structure of kinesin related to its function?
The structure of kinesin is related to its function as a motor protein that transports cargo along microtubules in cells. Kinesin has two heads, or motor domains, that can bind to and hydrolyze ATP. These heads are connected by a stalk and a coiled-coil tail domain, which allows for movement along the microtubule. The structure of kinesin allows it to walk along the microtubule, carrying cargo and using the energy from ATP hydrolysis to power its movement.
What is function of chloroplasm?
The main function of chloroplasm is to conduct photosynthesis. When photosynthesis is completed, ATP is formed. ATP is a form of energy.
Does the principle of complementarity of structures and function means that the structure of a part reflects its fuction?
Function reflects structure and structure determines function
How does cyanide inhibit mitochondrial function?
ATP decreases
