Answer:

ATP(Adenosine Triphosphate)

Explanation:

ATP is a highly necessary molecule for the cell life cycle, its main function is to <u>store energy</u> for vital cell processes.

Its structure is composed of three phosphate groups (PO₄₃₋) and one adenosine (composed by sugar ribose and adenine).

ATP is capable of releasing large amounts of energy when it breaks down through water (hydrolysis), after this process, the ATP molecule "loses" its terminal phosphate, changing into ADP (adenosine diphosphate).

At the end of the reaction, the chemical energy is released.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Peripheral

Explanation:

The nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) & peripheral nervous system (PNS). The brain and the spinal cord comprise the central nervous system. The peripheral nervous system serves the rest of the body and they branch from the spinal cord. Ii is in the peripheral nervous system that you'll find motor and sensory neurons. The sensory neurons take information to the CNS to be processed. After processing information, the CNS sends back information through the motor neuron of the PNS indicating which action to be taken based on the ‘input’ information.
