ATP

Picture 39 - Within this plant, the process of photosynthesis is taking place. In order to carry out this process, the plant uses ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This gives the plant energy to carry out its life functions. The picture was taken at my grandma's house.
Picture 40 - This is a picture of a flower. This picture was taken at the park. ATP is a nucleotide consisting of adenine, ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups; ATP is the energy currency of cellular metabolism in all organisms. ATP is helping this flower live.
