ATP - the most important high-energy Compound ATP is a unique & the most impositant high-energy molecule. in the wing celle. Ba Ene >It consiste ATP is a of an Adenine, ambose & a triphosphate moiety. high energy compound due to the presence of two phospho anytride bonds in the structure. ATP serves as the Energy currency of the cell. ATP C NH O-P~O-P~O-P-O-CH₂ The hy dublysis of ASP of Dinge bunt Adenine associated with the release ATP + HO +R+73 الم Syntheringy ATP like muscle contrac ATP Can Y ATP Can is utilized for various processed Active transport elk be synthesized Caned 2 ways offrey phosphates to Oxidative phosphorylaties them energy such the othernt he the ADP Con e transport accept high energy cmprends such as coreathnic phosphate)!
