Answer:

B.energy is consumed.

Explanation:

When ATP gain phosphate the energy is consumed(ADP+ Pi+ free energy→ ATP+ H2O). So in the formation of ATP energy is used and consumed and that energy is stored in the terminal phosphate bond.

This ATP act as the cellular form of energy and this energy is released when the terminal phosphate bond breaks and terminal phosphate is released from the ATP. This energy is used to perform the metabolic function required for cell survival and cell growth. Therefore energy is consumed in ATP formation.
