Question

multiple choice question which molecule is represented in the figure? triglyceride cholesterol deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) adenosine triphosphate (atp)

Explanation:

The figure shows a structure with a nitrogen - containing base (the purple hexagons), a five - carbon sugar (the green pentagon), and three phosphate groups (the orange circles). Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) has an adenine base, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups. DNA has a different sugar (deoxyribose) and is a long polymer. Triglycerides and cholesterol do not have this structure with a base, sugar, and multiple phosphates.

Answer:

D. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
