Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is a compound that stores and provides the energy required to perform a variety of biochemical processes in living beings.
After being consumed, it losses one or two of its phosphates and becomes adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or adenosine monophosphate (AMP).
It can also act as a coenzyme and be a precursor to DNA and ARN because it is a nucleic acid.
Each molecule of ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, formed by an adenine (a nitrogenous base), a ribose (a sugar), and triphosphate.
This means the correct answer is A) nucleic acid

Explanation:
Answer options:
- The nucleus was unable to provide instructions for the other organelles in the cells.
- The mitochondria were unable to undergo cellular respiration and could not produce energy for the cells to function.
- The lysosomes were unable to remove waste from the cells.
- The cell membrane was unable to allow substances to enter and exit the cells.
Answer:
- The mitochondria were unable to undergo cellular respiration and could not produce energy for the cells to function.
Explanation:
Mitochondria are the site of aerobic respiration. This is the process that produces energy in the form of ATP. ATP provides energy for all cellular processes. Without this energy, the cell cannot carry out its functions and will quickly die.
Aerobic respiration requires a good supply of oxygen, which the grasshopper would not have had in a sealed container.
