In order for energy to be released from an ATP molecule, which of the following must first take place?

Biology
1 answer:
exis [7]4 years ago

Answer:

For the energy to be released from the ATP molecule it must first take place that the bond holding the third phosphate molecule must be broken.

Explanation:

The ATP molecule is the one that provides energy with which living beings carry out their metabolic processes.

ATP has in its structure three phosphate molecules, each of them united by a high energy bond. When the hydrolysis of ATP occurs —releasing a phosphate molecule and leaving ADP— <u>energy is released by breaking the bond</u>. That energy is used by the cell to perform its functions.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <em>The addition or gain of phosphate to the ADP is called phosphorylation, and it does not release energy. </em>
  • <em>The separation of a phosphate molecule from ATP is sufficient to produce energy.</em>
