Quizplus · Accepted Answer

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a versatile energy carrier found in eukaryotic cells. It is used to power many cellular processes, such as muscle contraction, active transport across cell membranes, and synthesis of macromolecules like proteins and nucleic acids. NADPH and NADH are involved in electron transfer reactions, while FADH₂ is involved in oxidative phosphorylation but it is not as versatile as ATP. Therefore, the best choice as the most versatile energy carrier in eukaryotic cells is ATP.
