The energy currency of living organisms is ATP. It got its nickname due to its unique property of being the only compound that can transfer energy to maintain cellular activity. ATP is also known as adenosine triphosphate is made up of three different components, a sugar molecule at the center, a base of adenine and a string of phosphate groups. (see image attached). In order for ATP to produce energy, it first comes into contact with an enzyme that releases the endmost phosphate group on ATP when this reaction happens the energy gets released.

Explanation:

The termination of the neurotransmitters is essential as if they can cause harm by continuing the stimulus effect on the muscles or cells. To clean up these neurotransmitters there are two ways- Degradation of neurotransmitters with the help of enzymes in the synapses or synaptic cleft and the presynaptic neurons absorbs or suck up neurotransmitters. The neuron (presynaptic neuron) is that releases the neurotransmitter like dopamine, serotonin, is the one that re-uptake it.

This reuptake is done by transporter proteins that are are symporters in nature as these proteins pump neurotransmitters as well as ions back into the neuron.
