This molecule is an excellent example of irreducible complexity because it is necessary in its entirety in order for even the simplest form of life to survive. The ATP is used for many cell functions including transport work moving substances across cell membranes. It is also used for mechanical work, supplying the energy needed for muscle contraction.
