The terminal phosphate group is broken off. The negative charge on the phosphate groups make them willing to separate.
ATP or adenosine triphosphate is the energy currency of the cell. It is regenerated from ADP through the process of oxidation.
The molecule for ATP is less stable than the ADP molecule. The process that ATP takes to become ADP is what gives the body much of its energy.
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) is changed into ATP (adenosine triphosphate) , by adding aphosphate to ADP.
adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP
Phosphorylation is the addition of a phosphate to ADP to form ATP. ADP + P = ATP Dephosphorylation is the removal of a phosphate from ATP to form ADP. ATP - P = ADP
ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.
ADP is made by ATP when one of three peptide bonds of ATP are broken down.
Yes; when ATP is used up (loses a phosphate group), it can be "re-energized" (phosphorylated) by the addition of a free phosphate. ADP is constantly being made into ATP and ATP is constantly being used up and turned into ADP.
Changing ATP into ADP is a chemical change that releases energy that the cell can use to do work.

ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.
The biggest difference between ATP and ADP is that ADP contains 2 phosphates. ATP contains 3 phosphates. ADP means adenine di-phosphate and ATP means adenine tri-phosphate.

ATP and ADP are not considered fuels. The fuels that are utilized in order to produce ATP and ADP usually come from the food that people eat.
Mitochondria use the sugar glucose to change ADP into ATP. ATP is what produces energy the cell needs.
