The energy currency of the cell is called ___________?

A. ATP

The energy currency of the cell is called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is a molecule that stores energy and releases it when needed by the cell. It acts like a rechargeable battery, with the energy being stored in the bonds between the phosphate groups. When these bonds are broken, energy is released and can be used by the cell for various processes, such as muscle contraction, protein synthesis, and active transport. The cells continually produce ATP through cellular respiration, which is the process by which cells produce energy from nutrients.
