ATP has three phosphate groups attached to the nucleic acid adenosine. The last or third bond has the most energy in it and when it is broken. that energy is used to drive cell activities. It may be helpful to think of ATP as a battery that gets charged, and as soon as it is charged, it can off a spark of energy that can be used to do work in the body.

∙ 8y agoWhen the bond is broken in ATP energy is released. AT~P ----> ADP + energy. There are three phosphate groups attached (TriphosPhate) but the last bond can be broken easily. The energy in the last bond is what is released and used by the cell. Adding one P to ADP (which has only 2 phosphates) takes energy which is stored in the last bond. You get this energy by eating food.ATD + P ---> ATP
ATP minus P = ADP + P + energy.It may be helpful to think of ATP as a battery that gets charged, and as soon as it is charged,
it can off a spark of energy that can be used to do work in the body.

∙ 11y agoThe stored energy in a molecule of ATP is released when the third phosphate group breaks away to form a molecule of ADP and P. ATP --> ADP + P + Energy

What molecule determines energy storage in cellular respiration?
Energy in glucose is released. That energy is stored in ATP
Where is the energy from a glucose molecule stored?
The energy released from cellular respiration of glucose is temporarily stored in the ATP molecules. ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate and these molecules can be used to do work in the cell.
When a molecule of glucose is broken down b y aerobic respiration the energy stored in the glucose gets transferred to?
The energy stored in the glucose molecule gets transferred to molecules of ATP.
How do ATP store and release energy?
ATP or adenosine triphosphate stores and releases energy by adding or breaking off one of the phosphate molecules on its tail. When a phosphate molecule breaks off of ATP it releases energy. Likewise, if an ADP (a ATP with one lose phosphate group than ATP) gains a phosphate group, energy is stored.
The formula that shows the release of energy by a molecule of ATP?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 -----6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
Where is energy stored in the molecule of ATP?
An ATP molecule is made of ribose, adenosine, and phosphate. The energy is stored within the bonds of the phosphate molecules.
Compare the amount of energy stored by ATP and glucose.?
One molecule of glucose stores 90 times the amount of chemical energy than one molecule of ATP.
How is energy stored in respiration?
Chemical energy is stored in form of bonds
What molecule has the most stored energy ADP ATP NADPH or starch?
ATP
Would the formation of ATP molecules from glucose oxidation be an example of energy transformation or conversion?
Yes. It is a good example of energy transformation or conversion. In this energy stored in glucose molecule is released in small pockets. And stored in 38 ATP molecules. Here ADP molecule get converted into ATP molecule. When energy is required, ATP molecule is reconverted into ADP molecule.
Cellular respiration can be described as the conversion of energy into what?
stored in food molecules to energy stored in ATP
The energy of the Atp molecule is stored within which phosphate groups?
The energy of Atp molecules is not stored in any of its phosphate groups. Its energy is stored between and within the bonds of the phosphate groups of [Amp], Adp and Atp molecules.
What molecule determines energy storage in cellular respiration?
Energy in glucose is released. That energy is stored in ATP
Does glycolisis release energy?
Yes it release energy of glucose.This energy is stored in ATP.
Where in a molecule of ATP is the stored energy that is used by cells?
The energy in ATP is stored as potential energy in the triphosphate attached to the end. The molecule wants to remove one of the phosphates, when it does so, it releases large amounts of energy.
What energy molecule teal is restored as a product of cellular respiration?
Energy is stored in ATP. It is the universal currency of energy.
Where is energy stored in a molecule?
The nucleusAdenosine Triphosphate, often abbreviated ATP, is the molecule, created by cell respiration in the mitochondria of animal cells and photosynthesis in the chloroplasts of plants, in which energy is stored.
