The energy used by cells in their internal processes is called ATP. ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate.

Some info / facts about ATP:

- ATP is an organic chemical.

- ATP is used by cells, but it can also be produced in living organisms.

- ATP is a nucleotide (an organic molecule that builds up DNA or RNA).
