Summary Introduction
To distinguish: The bonds in ATP that have “high energy”.
Introduction: Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic compound that gives energy to drive several processes in the living cells. For example, contraction of muscle, propagation of nerve impulses, and chemical synthesis. The ATP is often referred to as the energy currency for the cell. This is because the energy released by ATP hydrolysis can control most of the endergonic transactions.
