bacteria? No. The chemical storage molecule for energy, in living things, is ATP, adenosine triphosphate.

=The potential energy stored in chemical bands.=
Everything that happens in a cell depends upon chemical reactions; a cell is effectively a chemical machine. When radiation strikes a molecule, it usually has enough energy to alter that molecule, and the altered molecule will have different chemical properties than it originally had, and it will not carry out its normal role in the biochemistry of the cell, but may instead interfere with that biochemistry.
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.
energy is released
Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
ATP, or adinosine triphosphate, is simply an adenine, a sugar (ribose), and three phosphates. ADP is has two phosphates, and AMP has one phosphate. Each phosphate added creates more energy in the molecule, making it unstable. It is the phosphates coming apart from the molecule that is releasing the energy.
ADP reduces when involved in a catabolic reaction and gains an extra phosphate group, becoming ATP (three phosphates), a molecule with more chemical energy stored than ADP (two phosphates).
Energy is released.

The potential energy stored in the bonds of the phosphates provides the energy for DNA synthesis.
Chemical energy is stored in the bonds of the atoms making up a molecule.
When atoms join together to form a molecule the chemical energy is stored and result in this formation. Like wise, in the break down of a molecule the chemical energy is given off.
