Answer

          Nucleotide that use in the formation of high energy molecule is known as Adenine.

Explanation

         A single nucleotide is composed of three components, these are:

1. Pentose sugar

2. Phosphate group (phosphoric acid, and

3. Nitrogenous base.

Formation of high energy molecule

                  ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate is a type of mononucleotide. When adenine and nitrogenous base combine they give rise to another molecule known as adenosine.

                             Adenine + nitrogenous base →   Adenosine

However when one phosphate group is attached to it it become adenosine monophosphate.

                    Adenosine + posphate → Adenosine monophosphate

Similary when another phosphate is attached it become adenosine diphosphate and the addition of third phosphate lead to the formation of adenosine triphosphate.

Conclusion

               Thus is is cleared from the above discussion that Adenine is the main component of ATP (Energy rich molecule).

What structure brings tRNA and mRNA together
tester [92]
Translation requires some specialized equipment. Just as you wouldn't go to play tennis without your racket and ball, so a cell couldn't translate an mRNA into a protein without two pieces of molecular gear: ribosomes and tRNAs.<span>Ribosomes provide a structure in which translation can take place. They also catalyze the reaction that links amino acids to make a new protein.</span><span>tRNAs (transfer RNAs) carry amino acids to the ribosome. They act as "bridges," matching a codon in an mRNA with the amino acid it codes for.</span>Here, we’ll take a closer look at ribosomes and tRNAs. If you're not yet familiar with RNA (which stands for ribonucleic acid), I highly recommend checking out the nucleic acids section first so you can get the most out of this article!Ribosomes: Where the translation happensTranslation takes place inside structures called ribosomes, which are made of RNA and protein. Ribosomes organize translation and catalyze the reaction that joins amino acids to make a protein chain.

What are the two organelles are involved in cellular energetics ? Which of them are found in plants in animals?
Elodia [21]
Chloroplasts  - found only in plants and algae. they convert solar radiation energy to chemical energy usable for the cell's metabolism.
mitochondria - found in both plants and animals, they produce energy (in the form of ATP - chemical compound) by decomposing sugars and fats. they use up oxygen to do it.
