Introduction to ATP

What is the full name of the molecule ATP?

• Adenine Diphosphate

• Adenosine Diphosphate

• Adenine Triphosphate

• Adenosine Triphosphate

What is the function of ATP?

• provides energy for cells (including muscles)

• stores genetic information

• provides structure in the nucleus

• remembers movements the body makes

Which phrase best describes the function of ATP molecule?

• ATP absorbs energy

• ATP increases energy

• ATP stores energy

• ATP creates energy

Where is the energy stored in ATP molecules

• In the Ribose Sugar
