    C.

    Adenosine Triphosphate

    D.

    Adenosine Tetraphosphate

    Correct option is C

    • ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate, which is a molecule that serves as the primary energy carrier in living organisms.
    • It is composed of an adenosine molecule (adenine and ribose) attached to three phosphate groups.
    • When ATP is hydrolyzed into ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) or AMP (Adenosine Monophosphate), it releases energy used for various cellular processes.

    Information Booster

    • ATP is often referred to as the "energy currency" of the cell.
    • It is produced during cellular respiration in the mitochondria.
    • Processes like muscle contraction, active transport, and biochemical reactions depend on ATP for energy.
