    ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the main energy carrier in cells. It is composed of adenine, ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups bonded together. When a phosphate group is removed from ATP, energy is released that can be used by cells for various processes. The remaining ADP (adenosine diphosphate) can later re-form ATP when phosphate is re-attached, absorbing energy from food sources.
