Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the primary molecule for storing and transferring energy in cells, but it only stores energy for a short period of time. It releases energy quickly when it is broken down into ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate) and a phosphate group, making it suitable for immediate energy needs rather than long-term storage.
