Which statement about AMP and energy is true? 1. AMP releases energy as it makes ATP 2.AMP absorbs energy when it breaks bonds 3.AMP releases energy when formed 4.AMP has one phosphate molecule

The correct answer is - 4. AMP has one phosphate molecule.

Explanation:

AMP or adenosine monophosphate is the secondary messenger and major component of ATP (the cellular energy form). As suggested by the name it has only one molecule of phosphate, unlike ADP that has two and ATP where three phosphates are attached to one sugar molecule and nucleobase adenine.

AMP has the least energy in comparison to the ADP and ATP as more energy releases when bonding breaks. It is interconverted to ADP and ATP in metabolic processes.
