Question

In Cellular respiration energy is trapped in the form of ATP which is used for cellular work and acts as a "currency" for energy transfers within a cell which everyday item functions in a way similar to ATP

Answer 1

It functions in a way similar to ATP as a rechargeable battery, because it can store energy and then release it.

Step-by-step explanation:

• ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is an energy component in the cell as it provides energy required for various purposes of activities in the cell hence it is termed as the “currency” for energy.

• ATP produces ADP that is converted into the energy for the flow of cellular activities and then ATPs can again be reused many times.

• As in batteries, ATP can also be recycled and recharged to get the required energy several times.
