The answer is D. Both plants and animals undergo cellular respiration in order to provide energy for the organism.  This is done by hydrolysis of ATP to break a phosphate bond to release energy.

Answer:

D. Plants and animals both break a phosphate bond of ATP to release energy.

Explanation:

ATP is the energy currency for both plant and animal cells. This means that the ATP serves as an energy source in these cells.  

ATP has three terminal phosphates and release of phosphate from ATP by breaking the bond releases a large amount of energy. This energy is used by both plant and animal cells to carry out other vital functions that require energy input.
