Solution

To determine the remnant after ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is used, we need to understand the basic energetics of ATP hydrolysis. When ATP is broken down, it typically loses two phosphate groups and is converted into adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi).

After further hydrolysis, ATP can leave behind adenosine (the nucleoside that makes up ATP, consisting of the adenine base and the ribose sugar) as the remnant.

Among the options provided:

  1. Acetylcholine: A neurotransmitter, but not a remnant of ATP.
  2. Adrenaline: A hormone, unrelated to ATP degradation.
  3. Adenosine: The remnant nucleoside after ATP breakdown.
  4. Abscisic: A plant hormone, not related to ATP.

Thus, the correct answer is Adenosine.
