A "high-energy bond" in ATP
A) absorbs a large amount of free energy when the phosphate group is attached during hydrolysis.
B) is formed when ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP and one phosphate group.
C) is similar to the bonds in glucose molecules; that is why glucose can be used as a source of metabolic energy.
D) contributes to the "energy in" part of an endergonic reaction.
E) is/does all of these.
