c. ATP is comprised of a sugar, base, and three phosphate groups
Explanation:
ATP is the energy currency of cells and is formed during the phosphorylation of ADP. The process of ATP formation is endergonic and is often coupled with some exergonic process.
One molecule of ATP consists of one ribose sugar, an adenine base (a purine base) and three phosphate groups. Breakage of phosphoanhydride bond during hydrolysis of ATP into ADP and inorganic phosphate release a large amount of energy.
It's important to not touch the sides or the bottom of the test tube with the thermometer because touching it to the sides or bottom of the test tube fractures the glass and does not allow for correct temperature measurements.
The Endoplasmic reticulum is a series of pipes and it moves in the cell. Without the E.R., the protein factory (ribosomes) would not be able to ship the proteins and cells would starve to death. Hope this helped!
