Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate. ATP is considered as the energy currency of the cell because it provides lots of energy during metabolic processes. The energy in ATP is stored as a high energy terminal phosphate bond which means the energy will release when the terminal phosphate bond will break.

As the terminal phosphate bond breaks the energy is released which is used by the cell to perform some metabolic activity. After this reaction, the ATP converts into ADP. So the correct answer is B.
