What are the components of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)?
romanna [79]

At the centre is a sugar molecule, ribose (the same sugar that forms the basis of RNA). Attached to one side of this is a 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 phosphate groups. These phosphates are the key to the activity of ATP.

What is a reproductive strategy
Bumek [7]
A reproductive strategy presents an approach of a type of an organism to reproduction and of taking care of it's offspring.  

Generaly speaking, there are two main reproductive strategies, K and R reproductive strategies.

The organisms that apply the R strategy produce a great number of small, independent offspring and when the offspring is born or hatched it's left to
try to survive on its own. This strategy is used by bacteria, many invertebrates, and reptiles.

On the other hand, the K strategy organisms produce a small number of offspring that they care of for a significant amount of time after they are born. This strategy is used mostly by mammals and birds.
