Respuesta :
Pi or inorganic phosphate is released from ATP and therefore provides energy.
What is ATP?
It is the energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all the living things. It is a nucleotide, which comprises three main parts, that is,
- The nitrogenous base
- Adenine
- Ribose sugar
- A chain of three phosphate groups combined to ribose
The tail of phosphate is the actual source of energy, which is tapped by the cell. The accessible energy is present within the bonds between the phosphates and is discharged when the bonds are dissociated. It takes place via the supplementation of a water molecule, the process known as hydrolysis.
Generally, only the outer phosphate is withdrawn from the ATP to produce energy, when this takes place ATP get transformed to ADP or adenosine diphosphate.
Thus, the correct answer is option B, that is, Pi.
