1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

The amount of energy stored in a molecule of ATP compared to the amount stored in a molecule of glucose is <u>less</u>.

Explanation:

Both ATP and glucose are energy containing molecules. However, a molecule of glucose has about 90 times more energy than a molecule of ATP.

But, ATP is used by most cells as the quickest source of energy. This is because ATP can easily be broken down to generate energy and it transfers energy very effectively.

A molecule of ATP is made up of adenine and three phosphate groups. The bond between the second and third phosphate is broken down to generate energy.
