What general kind of reaction does ATP carry out?

Short Answer

Expert verified

In anabolic processes, ATP donates a phosphate group to another molecule.

Step by step solution

01

Describe ATP.

In the cells, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy source for use and storage. Adenosine triphosphate is a nucleoside triphosphate with three phosphate groups bonded consecutively through a high-energy phosphoanhydridebond P-Obond, a sugar (ribose) and a nitrogenous base (adenine).

02

Find the general type of reaction ATP carried out.

The energy released by catabolic processes to generate ATP from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and hydrogen phosphate ion is used to "get" ATP. Anabolic processes then consume ATP by donating a phosphate group to some other molecule, regenerating ADP in the process. In anabolic processes, ATP donates a phosphate group to another molecule.
