Question

A plant cell uses the molecules in the list to synthesize a protein. What role do the

ATP molecules play in the protein synthesis process?

Answer 1

They provide energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Took the quiz and got this correct.

Answer 2

The light reactions of photosynthesis use chemiosmosis to produce ATP that will be used in the Calvin cycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

ATP is one of the most important compounds inside a cell because it is the energy transport molecule. ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate) is considered a transporter of energy (photosynthesis) because when one of the phosphate groups is broken off, turning it into Adenosine DiPhosphate (the Tri means 3 phosphate groups, the Di means 2 phosphate groups). When a phosphate breaks off, through chemical reactions in a cell, energy (photosynthesis) is released which the plant uses for cellular processes.
