AMP


AMP (adenosine monophosphate)
a molecule consisting of an ADENOSINE unit on to which is attached a phosphate group with a low-level energy bond (see Fig. 32 ). The molecule is important because it functions as the basic structure for ADP and ATP, both of which contain HIGH-ENERGY BONDS (34 kJ/mole) that serve as a short-term energy store for the cell. See ATP (Fig. 55) for molecular structure.AMP

Q. What is the connection between alcoholism & male fertility? If a guy drank heavily for many years, then stayed sober for many years, would his ability to impregnate a woman disappear, or be at all diminished, as a result of his years as a hard-core alcoholic? In other words, would he not have to worry about using any birth control because in his situation it was rendered unnecessary due to the negative effects of long-term drinking? And would such bad effects, if indeed they had kicked in, have been canceled out by a long period of sobriety after the drinking years?
