Answer:

The correct answer is B) A third phosphate group.                                

Explanation:

ATP is Adenosine Tri<em>phosphate</em> and ADP is Adenosine Di<em>phosphate</em>.

ADP gets converted into ATP in presence of inorganic phosphate and energy, irrespective of whether the energy is obtained from sunlight or from certain exothermic reactions. ATP is converted into ADP, releasing energy and inorganic phosphate.

Cheers!

Electricity is added to recharge a battery. A third phosphate group  is added to ADP to form ATP.

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate contains adenine, ribose and 3 phosphate groups.

ADP is converted to ATP by the following reaction:

ADP+Pi+energy⇄ATP

The analogy between battery and ATP can be explained as ATP is higher energy form and ADP is lower energy form like charged and uncharged form of the battery. When the terminal or third phosphate is removed from the ATP it becomes ADP and releases energy like a battery. The additional phosphate group when added to ADP forms the ATP molecule like the energy spent by the batteries are recharged by putting in additional energy. Here the additional energy is provided by the third phosphate group.

NARA [144]


Testosterone is an example of a steroid.  Its physiological functions include:

1. Determines the the gender of a developing embryo.

2. Development of reproductive organs and the prostrate gland in males.

3. Responsible for secondary sexual characteristics in males such as deeper pitch, increased muscle bulk, hair on the upper lip.

4. Regulates normal sperm development.

Another steroid is cholesterol. Physiological functions include:

1. Helps maintain the structure  of cells and vessels improving overall health and function in the body.

2. Precursor to important sex hormones such as testosterone and estrogen.

3. Used as an insulator around nerves and is absolutely essential for brain function.
