Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Figure 6.1 shows the conversion of ADP to ATP and vice versa with the addition or loss of a phosphate group. ATP is a molecule that acts as an intermediary to store energy for cellular work. Therefore, D is the most correct interpretation. Options A, B, C, and E are incorrect interpretations of the figure.
