A)proteins, triglycerides, and testosterone
B)proteins, ATP, and DNA
C)ATP, RNA, and DNA
D)α glucose, ATP, and DNA
E)proteins, carbohydrates, and ATP

Accepted Answer

Adenine is found in ATP (adenosine triphosphate), RNA (ribonucleic acid), and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). Choice A and E are incorrect because adenine is not found in triglycerides, testosterone, carbohydrates, or proteins. Choice D is incorrect because α glucose does not contain adenine.
