Answer:

B. It is the primary molecule in which cells store and use energy.

Explanation:

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is an energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living organisms. It provides the energy necessary for many functions, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, chemical processes, etc. It consists of three main structures:

  • the nitrogenous base called adenine
  • the sugar called ribose
  • a chain of three phosphate groups bound to ribose. This phosphate chain is the source of energy the cell uses.

Which part of the cell is selectively permeable? Why does it say so?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

cellular membranes

Explanation:

Cellular membranes are selectively permeable because they allow only certain molecules to cross into and out of the cell. The phospholipid bilayer is a selectively permeable membrane that surrounds all biological cells. The movement of molecules across the cell membrane bilayer can occur by passive transport (does not require energy) or active transport (requires energy). For example, water molecules pass passively through the cell membrane (passive transport), while other molecules pass through transmembrane proteins against a concentration gradient (active transport).
