ADP is like a partially charged battery because there is still energy contained within the bond between the first and second phosphate groups. However, it lacks the "high energy" bond that exists between the second and third phosphate groups in ATP.

Why is ATP often thought of as rechargeable battery?

Because ATP stores energy and releases it turning into ADP in the process. This ADP is then converted back to ATP by the cells so that its energy is ready when required, just like a rechargeable battery.

Is removing phosphate from ATP to form ADP known as phosphorylation?

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

How does ATP differ from ADP?

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.
