The correct answer is phosphorous but occurs in the form of a phosphate. ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate.

ATP is composed of three components. At the center of the molecule is found ribose, a sugar molecule which is the very same sugar that forms part of RNA. To one side of ribose is attached a base known as adenine. This base belongs to a group of molecules made of linked rings of both carbon and nitrogen atoms.

To the other side of ribose is attached a string of phosphate groups which are key to the energy carrying activities of ATP.

posledela

Answer:

The correct answer is c. are as genetically similar as other siblings.

Explanation:

Dizygotic twin are the twins which developes from two different fertilized egg. So a dizygotic twins can be both male, both female or one male and one female. As dizygotic twins are produced by fertilization of two different gametes, therefore, they share just half of their gene like other siblings share.

Therefore dizygotic twins are as genetically similar as other siblings. Monozygotic twins are the twins that are produced from a single fertilized egg which splits into two eggs. So monozygotic twins share 100% gene, therefore, they are called identical twins. So the correct answer is c.
