Question:
What is actually ATP and NADPH and how do they release energy? Do they store energy in the form of bonds?
Answer:
Yes. Energy is stored in all bonds. ATP undergoes hydrolysis and breaks into ADP and Pi and simultaneously releases about 34 kj/mol of energy. Similarly NADPH undergoes oxidation and liberates energy.
