ATP, the molecule of energy, has three phosphates (hence the “T” and “P”). When one phosphate group is BROKEN OFF, it releases lots of ENERGY.

Answer: Removed.

Explanation:

ATP, which stands for Adenosine triphosphate, is an energy-carrying molecule which has chemical energy stored in its bonds with phosphate groups. This molecule consists of adenosine (a sugar) and three phosphate groups (triphosphate)

This energy is obtained during cellular respiration from the breakdown of nutrients, and releases it to fuel cellular processes.

So, when the cell needs energy, ATP loses a phosphate group, releasing the energy stored in that bond, thus driving the metabolic processes of life. This energy is released because of the cleavage of high energy phosphate bond in ATP converting it into ADP (now it has two phosphates)

Explanation:

Evolution can best be described as a theory because it is an explanation that is widely supported by extensive observations, experimentation and reasoning.

Theories are formulated after careful observation into a particular phenomenon.

Most theories provides a vivid explanation into an observed event or process.
The theory of evolution is one of such theories that suggests that an organism changes in order to adapt to its environment.
Some of the key figures who contributed to the study of evolution are J. B Lamarck, Charles Darwin, Williams Smith e.t.c
