Summary Introduction
To review:
The effect of breaking of high-energy phosphate bonds and their physiological importance.
Introduction:
Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is essential as it provides the chemical energy that can be used by the cells of the body tissues to perform their specific tasks. ATP is used in synthesis and breakdown of different
