Do energy molecules contain phosphate?

Yes. The energy-storage molecule, ATP, is adenosine triphosphate.


Do protein molecules contain oxygen carbon and nitrogen?

yes as proteins are made of amino acids which contain an amine functional group (Nh2)


What is the molecule that contain chemical energy?

All molecules contain chemical energy in their chemical bonds. The molecule that stores chemical energy in living things is ATP, adenosine triphosphate. It is composed of one molecule of adenosine, and three phosphate molecules. When a cell needs energy, one of the phosphate molecules is released from the ATP. When that bond is broken, the chemical energy that was stored in the bond is used by the cell to do work.


What are examples of a phosphate group?

A biological molecule that contains a phosphate group are nucleotides. Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) consist of a five carbon sugar, an organic base, and a phosphate group.


Do skeletal muscles contain calcium phosphate?

No. Skeletal muscles contain creatine phosphate, not calcium phosphate. Unless a person has a disease, free or calcium phosphate would not be found in muscle tissue. Calcium phosphate is found in bones and teeth.


How is ATP like and unlike nucleic acids?

Nucleic acids are a braod category of compounds. Chemically at least, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) contains a adenine ring, a ribose sugar and 3 phosphate molecules. A nucleic acid is composed of a nitrogenous base (purine or pyrimidine), a pentose sugar and a phosphate group. Since adenine, which is itself a purine, can be found in some nucleic acids, the similarities would be the possibility of both containing adenine, both contain a sugar molecule and both contain phosphate molecules. The numbers they each contain would be the difference.
