Answer: Removed.

Explanation:

<u>ATP, which stands for Adenosine triphosphate, is an energy-carrying molecule which has chemical energy stored in its bonds with phosphate groups.</u> 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, <u>ATP loses a phosphate group, releasing the energy stored in that bond,</u> 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)

MrRa [10]
Heart and lungs works hand in hand. Not only that they are close to each other but they also work to make sure that body gets enough oxygen that it needs to live. It is the heart that pumps blood through the body it passes through the lungs. then it is the job of the lungs to supply oxygen together with the blood that heart pumps.
