What chemical bond in ATP releases energy when broken
Madhur L.
Which statement about carbohydrates and energy storage is NOT correct? a) The nonpolar bonds between C and H in carbohydrates contain energy because they are short bonds b) When glucose is broken down to give carbon dioxide and water, the bonds in the products are shorter than the bonds in glucose c) The energy released when the bonds in glucose are broken is used to attach a free phosphate group to ADP, which makes ATP d) ATP contains energy because the bonds between its phosphate groups are long e) b and d
