Answer:

Explanation:

ATP is an abbreviation of the molecule adenosine triphosphate.

ADP is an abbreviation of the molecule adenosine diphosphate.

A phosphate bond is an extremely high energy bond, meaning a lot of energy is required to form such a bond, and breaking such a bond would result in the release of a lot of energy.

ATP has three phosphates, while ADP only has two, and hence a release in energy would be the result of removing a phosphate from an ATP molecule to form ADP.

The correct answer is C.
Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is removed from ATP to form ADP.

When a molecule absorbs a photon, one of its electrons is raised to the ______ state.

77julia77 [94]

The correct answer is: D) excited

A molecule is in an excited state when its energy level is higher than the ground state. That molecule stays in excited state for short time and then returns to a state with lower energy. This return to a lower energy level is described as decay and is the inverse process of excitation.

The transition from ground to excited state of an atom is possible if electrons gain energy that is higher than the difference in energies between the two energy orbits.
