That depends on what you are talking about (what molecule is being used to supply energy). Normally Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is changed into Adenosine Diphosphate and a phosphate ion. This is an exothermic reaction, and the left over energy can be used to fuel other reactions. However, during translation at the ribosome, ATP is changed into AMP (adenosine monophosphate).
Oxygen circulates through the body in blood. A molecule of oxygen (O2) from the lungs binds loosely to a molecule of hemoglobin in a red blood cell. The red blood cell travels through the capillaries and the oxygen molecule is released from the hemoglobin and is delivered to the cells.
Yes, the also use ATP and luciferase which catalyzes this oxidation reaction. This reaction produces light and 100% of the energy produced by this reaction is released as light.
Fireflies or lightning bugs make light within their bodies. This process is called bioluminescence and is shared by many other organisms, mostly sea-living or marine organisms. Fireflies light up to attract a mate. To do this, the fireflies contain specialized cells in their abdomen that make light. The cells contain a chemical called luciferin and make an enzyme called luciferase. To make light, the luciferin combines with oxygen to form an inactive molecule called oxyluciferin. The luciferase speeds up the reaction, which occurs in two steps: # The luciferin combines with adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is found in all cells, to form luciferyl adenylate and pyrophosphate (PPi) on the surface of the luciferase enzyme. The luciferyl adenylate remains bound to the enzyme: luciferin + ATP -------------> luciferyl adenylate + PPi# The luciferyl adenylate combines with oxygen to form oxyluciferin and adenosine monophosphate (AMP). Light is given off and the oxyluciferin and AMP are released from the enzimes` surface. luciferyl adenylate + O2 -------------> oxyluciferin +AMP + light

In cellular respiration, glucose created in photosynthesis is broken down over three stages into the energy molecule adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. This molecule is then used to power various functions of the cell.
When the seal in the stick is broken, the two chemicals mix together and give off a soft, green glow. Most of the light created by marine organisms is blue-green in colour. This is because blue light travels best in water, and because most marine organisms are sensitive to blue light.
A water molecule is released.
The molecule releases a water molecule.
Energy was released when the molecule was formed from its elements

A water molecule! (H20 is released.
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.
