Transcript text: What molecule is represented by the molecular model shown below? Starch Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) Glucose Adenosine diphosphate (ADP)

Solution

Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the components of the molecular model

The molecular model shows three main parts:

A hexagonal shape (adenine)
A pentagonal shape (ribose sugar)
Three phosphate groups (P-P-P)

Step 2: Recognize the structure

The combination of adenine, ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups is characteristic of a specific molecule.

Step 3: Match the structure to the options

The structure matches the description of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), which consists of adenine, ribose, and three phosphate groups.

Final Answer

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
