Answer:

<em>ATP</em> or <em>Adenosine triphosphate</em> is the chief compounds which are used by the living things to store energy.

Explanation:

<em>ATP</em> is the compound that captures the chemical energy released through the degradation of food. It <em>stores</em> the captured energy and <em>releases</em> it at the time of need experienced by the organism.

It is made up of adenine, ribose sugar, and a phosphate group. It is produced in a cell organelle called <em>mitochondria</em> through a process called <em>respiration</em>.

Which adds evidence to the idea that the cell is the basic unit of life
Natalka [10]

Explanation:

<em>Complete question:</em>

<em>A. Cells contain ribosomes and have a cell membrane. </em>

<em>B. It is impossible for a multicellular organism to survive. </em>

<em>C. Many organisms in the world are made of only one cell. </em>

<em>D. Small organisms are generated spontaneously. </em>

<u />

<u>Correct: C. Many organisms in the world are made of only one cell. </u>

<u />

Biology's unifying principle states that cells are the basic units of biological organisms. Cells sharing a similar origin, group together inmulticellular organismsto form tissues; these typically share physical features and are arranged in regular patterns. All living things, grow, respire, reproduce etc. these processes are carried out by cells, which are thus integral to their survival.

Further Explanation:

Before the discovery of cells by Robert Hooke in 1665 with a simple microscope, many scientists had long believed that life of rose spontaneously over extended periods of time. Circa 1668 Francesco Redi, challenged the idea of spontaneous generation of maggots from rotting meat by placing meat in various sealed open, partially sealed and sealed containers

. Sealed containers did not show the presence of maggots, and he theorized that these were likely from eggs laid on the meat by flies. This was the development of the theory of abiogenesis (cells arise from other living cells); this eventually proved the unifying principle we know today.
