ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is the primary energy carrier in cells. It is used to power various biological processes, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and biochemical reactions. ATP releases energy when it is hydrolyzed to ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate, providing the necessary energy for cellular activities. Additionally, ATP is involved in the synthesis of macromolecules and the active transport of substances across cell membranes.
