검증된 단계별 안내1
Recall the four major classes of biomolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids.
Understand that ATP (adenosine triphosphate) consists of three main components: a nitrogenous base (adenine), a sugar (ribose), and three phosphate groups.
Recognize that molecules composed of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and phosphate groups are classified as nucleotides.
Note that ATP is specifically a ribonucleotide triphosphate because it contains ribose sugar and three phosphate groups.
Conclude that ATP is best classified as a nucleotide, not a monosaccharide, protein, or phospholipid.
