16. Which statement best describes the way that
an adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecule
becomes an adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
molecule in the human body?
C
A. Protein causes phosphate molecules to bind to
Sugars and form ATP.
B. Food energy is used to attach a phosphate
molecule to an ADP molecule.
C. lonized oxygen in cells causes sugars and
phosphate molecules to form ATP.
D. Water breaks down ADP molecules which form
into ATP molecules over time.

Respuesta :

Option B is the correct one -

B. Food energy is used to attach a phosphate molecule to an ADP molecule

An adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecule evolves an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule in the human body B. Food energy is utilised to tie a phosphate molecule to an ADP molecule.

How does ATP store its energy?

ATP or Adenosine triphosphate acts as the energy of the cell.

It keeps the energy released in the oxidation of glucose during cellular respiration.

ATP is split into ADP and Pi and energy is freed.

Thus, option "B"  Food energy is used to attach a phosphate molecule to an ADP molecule.
