The correct Answer is:
To determine which option forms ATP, we need to analyze the components that make up ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and see which of the given options includes elements that are part of ATP's structure. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Structure of ATP**: - ATP is composed of three main components: - A nitrogenous base (adenine) - A ribose sugar - Three phosphate groups 2. **Identify the Elements in ATP**: - The chemical structure of ATP contains the following elements: - Carbon (C) - Hydrogen (H) - Oxygen (O) - Nitrogen (N) - Phosphorus (P) 3. **Analyze the Options**: - **Option A: Iron and Phosphorus**: - Phosphorus is part of ATP, but iron is not. - **Option B: Nitrogen and Phosphorus**: - Both nitrogen and phosphorus are part of ATP (nitrogen in adenine and phosphorus in phosphate groups). - **Option C: Iron and Molybdenum**: - Neither iron nor molybdenum is part of ATP. - **Option D: Magnesium and Manganese**: - Magnesium is sometimes involved in ATP's function (as a cofactor), but it is not a structural component of ATP itself, and manganese is not part of ATP. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct option is **B: Nitrogen and Phosphorus**, as both are essential components of ATP.
