What is atp's importance in the cell? atp stores energy in carbonyl groups. when a carbonyl group is removed, energy is released to be used in cellular processes. atp contains a long hydrocarbon tail and is important in storing energy. atp is an important component of cell membranes because it is nonpolar and hydrophobic. atp can add phosphate groups, thereby releasing energy that can be used in cellular processes. atp stores the potential to react with water, thereby removi

ATP can add phosphate groups, thereby releasing energy that can be used in cellular processes

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency of the cell. It is produced during cellular respiration. It stores  energy in the terminal phosphtae bond.

When the terminal phosphate group is removed in the presence of ATPase enzyme, ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP), inorganic phosphate (pi) and energy.

Thus, on removal of phosphate group from ATP, ADP is formed and releases energy. The energy can be used in cellular processes      

the correct answer is - d. china has a large and growing population.

the fact that china has a large (the biggest) population, and it is still growing, doesn't hinder the agriculture production in the country. in fact, it can for increased production in the agriculture, since there's more labor force, as well the sheer mass of people produces lots of scientists that come up with new inventions as to how to improve this sector. nice example is the inner mongolia region in china, in general dominated by the gobi desert, but few scientist came up with a nice idea as to how to make the region productive by using plants that are very resistant to droughts, so lots of people have been employed, and the region is becoming greener and greener each year, and the production of food in this region is also increasing.
