lorasvet [3.4K]

About this much of the energy released from food molecules during catabolism is released as heat: adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

The Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the source of the energy for the use and the storage at the cellular level. The structure of the ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, consisting of the nitrogenous base (adenine), and ribose sugar, and the three serially bonded phosphate groups

ATP is synthesized in the mitochondria is the primary energy source for the important biological functions, such as the muscle contraction, the nerve impulse transmission, and the protein synthesis
