Question
Map Sapling Learning macmillan learriing Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the main "energy currency" used in cells. ATP hydrolysis is coupled with unfavorable reactions, making the net change in energy for the set of reactions less than zero (favorable) Although ATP is the main energy currency, other molecules, such as NAD, play a central role in some metabolic pathways The structure of NAD* is given below. Select the atoms and bonds that are common to NAD* and ATP NH2 Select an atom by clicking on it. A selected atom will turn green. Select both atoms and bonds. Tip: You can select all the atoms and bonds in an area by selecting an area (dragging a square) of the molecule with your mouse H OH H OHExplanation / Answer
Both ATP and NAD+ has the common str9ucture of sugar ( ribose). ATP made of a 5 carbone sugar, which is known as ribose ( in picture, the cntral structure)
