Answer: The correct answer is- C) ATP releases energy as a phosphate bond is broken.
ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) becomes ADP ( adenosine diphosphate) when the high energy phosphoanhydride bond ( present between two phosphate) is broken down or hydrolyzed.
This results in the release of large amount of energy with the formation of ADP and Pi ( inorganic phosphate).
Therefore, option C) is the right answer.
