I would say that it needs to converted into ATP because the sugar molecules turn into chemical energy that can be used by a cell to carry out life processes. Cells can breakdown ATP quickly to release the energy.

ATP and glucose different?
Yes. Glucose is a sugar, and it is a 6 carbon ring (C6H12O6). ATP is adenosine triphosphate, which is composed of adenosine and 3 phosphates (PO4). ATP is a direct source of energy for the body. When you ingest glucose, it is converted to ATP before it is used.
What is the outcome if ATP hydrolysis is not coupled to cellular work?
If ATP hydrolysis is not coupled with cellular work, then energy released is converted to heat energy.
Sugar is converted into carbon dioxide during what process in the body?
Tissue respiration in animals where an ATP molecule is used to release energy, and at the same time it produces carbon dioxide.
What is the energy transformation done in cellular respiration?
Starting by Glycolysis, There is phosphorylation of a sugar where energy from ATP is released to make sugar more reactive, means energy is converted from ATP to glucose, there is 2ATP invested and at the end of glycolysis we get 4 ATP, where energy converted from glycolysis intermediate to ADP to form ATP. so the net of energy is 2 ATP. and 2 NADH. During acetyl Co A formation, 2NADH are formed from 2NAD+ During Citric cycle, 2ATP are formed from 2ADP+2Pi , 2NADH from 2NAD+, and 2FADH2 from FAD+ NADH and FADH2 provide protons gradient in intermembrane space of mitochondrion which gives energy during Oxidative Chemiosmosis to form other ATPs.
When a 'high energy' bond of ATP is broken the released energy does what?
It usually changes the shape of a protein molecule. This is the way life works.
Three-carbon molecules of PGA are converted to energy-rich G3P sugar molecules by .?
ATP and NADPH novanet :)
Is ATP Suger?
ATP stands for Adenosine Tri-Phosphate. It is the raw form of energy that our cells can use. ATP, which is not a suger, is converted through respiration from glucose, which is a sugar.

What molecule stores energy for cells to use?
During cellular respiration energy is stored in ATP molecules. When ATP is converted in to ADP, this energy is released for cells to use. The conversion of ADP in to ATP requires molecules of hexose sugar to break down.
When the energy of sugar is released it is converted to a chemical abbreviated what that is readily abailable to carry out work inside the cell?
I think you mean ATP.
When ATP loses energy it is converted into?
ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.
How much of the available energy stored in glucose is converted to ATP?
About 67& of the energy in glucose is converted to ATP. The rest is lost as heat.
What two products of the light reactions are used up in the Calvin cycle?
NADPH and ATP
ATP is a molecule that stores in its phosphate bonds.?
ATP stores energy in its phosphate bond. This energy is released when the bond break and ATP is converted into ADP. This energy is used to perform vital functions in an organism.ATP stores energy in its phosphate bond. This energy is released when the bond break and ATP is converted into ADP.

Why does body need carbohydrates?
The body needs carbohydrates as a source of energy. Carbohydrates are converted into glucose, which is a form of sugar, the body uses to support the function of the muscles and brain.
What is the significance of the ATP cell?
