Why do cells use fat and starch for long-term energy storage instead of atp molecules?

Cells use fat and starch for long term energy storage instead of ATP molecules because it is hard to breakdown fat in a very short time while ATP can be broken down in a very short time.

It depends on the surface of the levels. the rougher the surface, the greater is the frictional force. for rougher surfaces, you would need to exert greater force to move the object. the concept is that, you must overcome the frictional force in order to bring the object into motion. this is the reason why we add lubricants to the joints so they could easily move. this answer was on
