The true/false question from yesterday was Atp does not play a role in energy transfer in living things.

You said did i mean stp. But it's atp so is the answer false??

Thanks so much for your help god bless!

True.

Is my answer right or is the answer true?

I should have clarified that YES, (true), the answer is false!

Sra

Sorry, but when the question is false: ATP does NOT play a role, etc. I say "TRUE" meaning TRUE, that is does NOT! That comes from studying Japanese, I'm sure!

Sra

Yes, you're correct! I apologize if there was any confusion in my previous response. The correct answer to the true/false question "ATP does not play a role in energy transfer in living things" would indeed be FALSE.

To explain further, ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate, which is a molecule commonly referred to as the "energy currency" of living organisms. ATP plays a crucial role in energy transfer by storing and releasing energy in its phosphate bonds.

When energy is needed by a cell, ATP can be hydrolyzed (broken down) into adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi), releasing a considerable amount of energy in the process. This energy can then be harnessed to perform various cellular activities such as muscle contraction, active transport of molecules across cell membranes, or chemical synthesis.

On the other hand, STP (which stands for standard temperature and pressure) refers to specific conditions used for measuring gases, typically at 0 degrees Celsius and 1 atmosphere of pressure. Therefore, STP is not related to ATP or energy transfer in living things.

I hope this clarifies your question. If you have any more doubts or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
