Question

ATP is
a. a form of energy that cannot be stored
b. A form of energy that can be used and stored

Answer 1

a. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a form of energy that cannot be stored long-term. It is an energy carrier in cells and is used immediately for cellular processes. Although cells can regenerate ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate, ATP itself is not stored in large amounts; instead, cells continuously produce and utilize it as needed.
