What is the body's energy currency?

  1. Glucose

  2. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

  3. Protein

  4. Carbohydrates

The correct answer is: Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the body's energy currency because it is the molecule that carries energy within cells and is used to power various cellular processes. Glucose, protein, and carbohydrates may provide a source of energy for the body but they are not the actual energy currency. Glucose, for example, needs to be converted into ATP before it can be used as energy. Similarly, protein and carbohydrates can be broken down into smaller molecules that are used to produce ATP. Therefore, while these options may contribute to the body's energy, they are not the primary energy currency.
