Question

6 multiple choice 10 points atp serves as a common energy source for organisms because it is the smallest energy molecule it stores the least energy of any energy source it is extremely stable and can be stored in the cell for long periods of time its energy can be easily transferred to do cellular work traces of it have been found in fossils of ancient organisms dating back to the beginning of life on earth navigate to question at position 6, unanswered

Explanation:

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell. Its structure allows for easy release of energy when the phosphate bonds are broken. This energy can then be used for various cellular processes. The first option about being the smallest energy molecule is not relevant to its role as a common energy source. The second option is incorrect as it stores a significant amount of energy. The third option is wrong because ATP is not extremely stable and is not stored for long - term (glucose and fats are for long - term energy storage). The fifth option about fossil traces is not related to its function as an energy source.

Answer:

its energy can be easily transferred to do cellular work
