Anabolic reactions build new molecules and/or store energy. The energy of catabolic reactions is used to drive anabolic reactions. The energy for chemical reactions is stored in ATP. Often when I ask students What is ATP the answer they give is Energy.
Confidence votes 9.2K. Unlike other energy sources, such as glucose, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a short-term energy boost to the cell. ATP is ineffective for long-term energy storage.Because of this, ATP has large amounts of energy that is released when it is turned into ADP, which is useful for chemical reactions that require high energy charges within the cell.ATP is analogous to a fully-charged battery, which can sustain large amounts of energy in little time, but does not last long.In effect, ATP is mainly used for quick reactions while other sources, such as glucose, is used for energy storage.onfidence votes 9.2K.
