ATP has three phosphate groups one of which is has a high energy bond with the molecule. When this bond breaks the energy is released and used by another molecule in the cell performing a function.So mainly ATP provides energy for the functions of the cell to be performed. Examples of such functions are the movement of the myosin heads in the muscle cell so the muscle can move.
