The non-conservation of parity in the domain of elementary particles and a possible mechanism for the delivery of energy from the ATP molecule.
A model is presented for the delivery of energy from the ATP molecule. The mode indicates the development of the following stages: a) A water molecule is fixed at the level of the high energy bond, b) The electronic cloud of the (PIII----OII) covalent bond turns around the nucleus of the oxygen (OII) atom. Subsequently, the phosphorus atom is left out from the covalent bond and the proton of the water molecule is included in a new covalent bond. c) The proton moves from 1.76 A to 0.97 A internuclear distances. The internuclear energy diminishes and the difference in energy is transmitted to an electron of the covalent bond, which presents a suitable spin and direction of motion to receive it. The symmetry in mirror is not conserved in this process. The symmetrical in the mirror corresponding to this process can exist only in antimatter.
