Question

Which mineral is required for the production of ATP?

Answer 1

Hint: In the form of phosphate phosphorus if found in the body. In energy production, phosphates play an important role as the components of ATP. Including the generation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) it is involved in the energy transfer mechanism.

Complete answer :
In minerals, phosphorus and phosphate generally occur. It also includes the components of DNA, RNA, ATP and phospholipids, complex compound fundamentals to the cells. At room temperature, it is colourless, semi-transparent, soft, wax solid that glows in the dark. For muscle contraction we need calcium, for synthesis of the haemoglobin iron is needed and while sodium regulates acid-bases equilibrium. For chemical energy ATP is not a storage molecule. Fritz Albert Lipmann and Herman Kalckar discovered the central role of ATP in energy metabolism. Phosphorus is involved in the energy transfer process, including the creation of sugars and alcohol esters and the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).In the addition, to these roles, in many regulatory processes phosphorus plays regulatory processes, where the reaction rates have been regulated by the inorganic phosphorus. One phosphate group is removed by breaking phosphoanhydride bonds, in a process called hydrolysis, energy is released and ATP is converted to adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

 Note:
Phosphorus is a chemical element with the symbol P and atomic number 15. As white phosphorus the elemental phosphorus was isolated in the year 1669. The full form of ATP is Adenosine Triphosphate. ATP has been proposed to act as a biological hydrotrope.
