Question 11 • HVA 26-27 IM Biology A

During reduction, PGA reacts with ATP and NADPH. What does ATP contribute to the reaction?

Answer
A
carbon
B
hydrogen ions
C
electrons
D
phosphate group

Explanation

ATP transfers a phosphate group to PGA during the reduction stage, helping convert it into a higher-energy intermediate. NADPH supplies the electrons needed for reduction, so ATP’s contribution is the phosphate group.
