The levels of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)--the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana--have reached the highest-ever amounts since scientific analysis of the drug began in the late 1970s, according to the latest analysis from the University of Mississippi's Potency Monitoring Project (PMP).
(3) The molecule that cells use as their temporary storage unit for small amounts of energy is ATP (adenosine triphosphate - energy storage molecule) (4) ATP is a molecule composed of: A. Adenosine (made of simple sugar [ribose] + adenine) B. and 3 Phosphates.
How Aerobic Respiration Works. Cells store energy in a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This compound contains three phosphate (PO4) groups, but can release energy by losing one of these to form adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Conversely, ADP can gain a phosphate group to become ATP, thus storing energy.
