What about the structure of ATP that makes it useful as the energy currency of cells?

ATP is the acronym for adenosine triphosphate. This compound is a nucleotide that can store large amounts of energy. Cells "run" by using ATP as a fuel source.Adding one P to ADP (which has only 2 phosphates) takes energy which is stored in the last bond. You get this energy by eating food.ATD + P ---> ATPATP minus P = ADP + P + energy.It may be helpful to think of ATP as a battery that gets charged, and as soon as it is charged, it can off a spark of energy that can be used to do work in the body.
