ATP is the molecule that supplies the energy needed to join glucose molecules together to form a molecule of glycogen.

Explanation:

ATP is the energy currency of cells. It is used to power all non-spontaneous biochemical reactions in the body including the conversion of glucose to glycogen.

Glycogen has a higher Gibbs free energy than glucose (because it lowers entropy) meaning you need energy to convert glucose to glycogen. This reaction does not occur spontaneously because of it akin to ‘climbing a hill’. ATP is involved in the condensation reaction of joining glucose molecules together into glycogen via glycosidic bonds.

What is the purpose of chloroplasts?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. They are only found in plant cells and some protists. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Every green plant you see is working to convert the energy of the sun into sugars. Plants are the basis of all life on Earth. They create sugars, and the byproduct of that process is the oxygen that we breathe. That process happens in the chloroplast. Mitochondria work in the opposite direction and break down the sugars and nutrients that the cell receives.
