The true measure of an appraisalâwhether a gem, jewelry, or a watchâis a combination of sophisticated laboratory technology, and expertise in interpreting the test results.
ATP works by losing the endmost phosphate group when instructed to do so by an enzyme. This reaction releases a lot of energy, which the organism can then use to build proteins, contact muscles, etc. The reaction product is adenosine diphosphate (ADP), and the phosphate group either ends up as orthophosphate (HPO 4) or attached to another molecule (e.g. an alcohol).
Enzymes help to break and reform these high-energy bonds. 28. What does ATP stand for? Adenosine triphosphate 29. What three main things make up an ATP molecule? nitrogen-containing base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine), a 5-carbon sugar , and 3 phosphate groups. 30. How many high-energy bonds does ATP contain? The LAST TWO phosphate groups (PO4), are joined by HIGH-ENERGY bonds. When these bonds are broken, energy is released for cells to use and ADP forms 31. Where are these high-energy bonds found in ATP? The LAST TWO phosphate groups (PO4), are joined by HIGH-ENERGY bonds 6
