What is the enzyme that acts as a motor - generating the energy currency of the cell?

The enzyme that acts as a motor and generates the energy currency of the cell is ATP synthase. It is responsible for synthesizing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi) using the energy generated by the hydrogen ion gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane during cellular respiration.

The major energy carrier molecule in most cells is adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is generated through cellular respiration and stores energy that can be used by the cell to fuel various metabolic processes.


Which organelle is known as powerhouse of the cell and why?

The mitochondrion is referred to as the "powerhouse" of the cell. The mitochondrion is a membrane bound organalle that converts oxygen and nutrients into Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The mitochondrian generates most of the cell's supply of ATP. ATP is the primary source of energy for the cell.


What is ATP what is its function?

ATP is known as Adenosine TriPhosphate. Hence the abbreviation ATP. ATP is produced by the ribosome in a cell. ATP is energy for the cell.
