ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate. The bond between the __________ (first, second, or third) phosphate group and the _______
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The bond between the _second_________ phosphate group and the third__phosphate group is a high energy bond.

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate is a nucleotide with three phosphate groups.  The second and third phosphate groups are bonded by high energy covalent bonds to the rest of the ATP molecule, which consists of a sugar, which is ribose, the first phosphate group, and the nitrogenous base which is adenine. All of the phosphate groups are negatively charged and repel each other, so a high energy covalent bond is necessary to attach these phosphate groups together and keep the forces from pulling them apart.

37. Which of the following shows the correct relationship between monomers and polymers?
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is the second option - glycerol and fatty acids combine to form lipids.

Explanation:

Lipids are a polymer or macromolecule, and the smaller pieces, or monomers, that make up lipids are glycerol and fatty acids.

Option 1 is incorrect because nucleotides are the monomer for nucleic acids, not proteins.

Option 3 is incorrect because amino acids combine to form proteins, not nucleic acids.

Option 4 is incorrect because polysaccharides are polymers (the monomer for carbohydrates is monosaccharides).

Hope this helps!
