Answer: C. Acts as energy reserve in muscle tissue.

Step-by-step explanation:

Creatine Phosphate is a high energy compound that can be found in muscle tissue.

It serves as an extra energy storage, since the normal metabolism cannot supply the high energy requirement of a muscle at work.

Creatine Phosphate is quickly transfered to ADP, for the production of ATP needed for muscle contraction.
