Energy is carried from catabolic to anabolic reactions in the form of _______

  • A.ADP
  • B.ATP
  • C.coenzymes
  • D.inorganic phosphate

Answer: B

Correct answer: ATP

ATP is the cell’s energy currency. Catabolism captures released energy by phosphorylating ADP, and anabolism spends it by hydrolysing ATP back to ADP and phosphate at the point where work must be done. Coupling the two through a common intermediate is what lets one pathway pay for another.
