No, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is not the primary building block of DNA. The main building blocks of DNA are nucleotides, which consist of a sugar (deoxyribose), a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine). While ATP contains a similar structure and is involved in energy transfer within cells, it is primarily associated with energy metabolism rather than DNA structure.

What element is required for the building of molecules of ATP and DNA?

The element required for the building of molecules of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is phosphorus. In ATP, phosphorus is a key component of the phosphate groups that store and release energy. In DNA, phosphorus is part of the backbone, linking the sugar molecules and contributing to the structure of the nucleic acid.
