ATP(<span>Adenosine Triphosphate) is a small molecule used in cells as a coenzyme. It is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer.

Three components of an ATP molecule:
-At the centre is a sugar molecule,ribose( the same sugar that forms the basis of RNA). Attached to one side of this base(a group consisting of linked rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms) in this case the base is adenine. The other side of the sugar is attached to a string of three phosphate groups.
ATP is used to transport chemical energy within cells for metabolism. </span>
The cellular and genomic organisation of prokaryotes are different from that of eukaryotes.
Prokaryotic cells have a small, simple structure compared to eukaryotic cells.
-less surface area per volume.
-simpler and smaller genomes than eukaryotes.
- the genome consists of a ring of DNA with few associated proteins.
-prokaryotes do not have membrane-bound organelle for respiration but many enzymes needed for cellular respiration are attached to the plasma membrane, which may fold and extend into the cell.
-Ribosomes are the only cytoplasmic organelles in prokaryotes and they are not membrane-bound.

Answer:
Briefly explain the main purpose of the genet
ic material in a cell?
Genetic materials in a cell is embedded in DNA which is transferred from one generation to another. It contain the inheritable traits that is transferred from parents to offspring
