Answer #1

Please find the answer below:

Answer: Adenine

Explanation: Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is considered to be an amphiphilic molecule and has both the hydrophobic component and hydrophilic component. ATP has a nitrogenous adenine base, ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups. Based on the ATP's general characteristics, the hydrophobic part of ATP is adenosine and its hydrophilic part is phosphate. The phosphate grouped is named as alpha, beta, and gamma phosphates.
