Levels of ATP and ADP are partly maintained in cells by
A)phosphoglucomutase.
B)the ADP concentration.
C)adenylate kinase.
D)and equilibrium with dissolved oxygen.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adenylate kinase helps maintain levels of ATP and ADP by catalyzing the reversible transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to ADP, thereby regulating the balance between ATP and ADP concentrations. This is an important mechanism for cells to maintain energy homeostasis. A, B, and D are not directly involved in regulating ATP and ADP concentrations.
