The right answer is A. It stores energy until a cell needs it.

ATP is a ribose-linked adenine molecule that is attached to a chain of three phosphate groups.

The mechanism is the transfer of a phosphate group to another molecule and the ATP then becomes adenosine diphophate (ADP).

But a cell has very little ATP. And as it consumes permamently, it must constantly manufacture (synthesize) and it is including cellular respiration that provides the energy necessary for the manufacture of ATP by allowing phosphorylation (addition of a phosphate to the ADP).

expeople1 [14]
It is necessary to phosphorylate a glucose molecule so as to trap glucose inside the cell, to make ATP, and to facilitate enzyme building. When insulin is released from the pancreas after a meal, it signals the tissues to uptake glucose. When glucose enters the cells via glucose transporters, there is a chance for them to leave the cell. If the body is in need of energy, and the breakdown of glucose will provide that energy, the body does not want the glucose to leave the cell and that is why the glucose is phosphorylated by ATP to become glucose-6-phosphate, which now bears a charge.
