It Works Round And Round
a: Adenosine triphosphate ~
b: a portable rechargable battery
What: Yes. This is the basic energy transfer molecule within biological systems, i.e. life as we know it. It has some other attributes, it is soluble in water so it can move around a cell very quickly to deliver energy where needed. But in reality it is a chemical. So don't think of it as 1 big battery but a billions, think moles, of batteries, that surround that which it is trying to energize.

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
