The energy lost is released as _______________in the glow of the candle's ļ¬ame.
Aadenosine triphosphate abbreviated____________.
ATP consists of adenine, a 5-carbon sugar called ribose, and three ______________.
Those phosphate groups in ATPĀ are the key to ATP's ability to _____________ energy.
One way cells use the energy provided by ATP is for carrying out_____________.
The energy stored in ATP also enables cells to move, providing power for motor proteins that contract ________ and power the wavelike movement of cilia and ļ¬agella.
Energy from ATP can be transferred to other molecules in the cell to power processes such as protein synthesis and responses to ______________ at the cell surface.
the blink of a ļ¬reļ¬y on a summer night comes from an enzyme that is powered by____________!
