ATP stands for "adenosine triphosphate". Tri=3, so 3 phosphates.
ATP and ADP are have similar structures the only difference is ATP has 3 phosphates and ADP has only 2 phosphates.
yes ADP + iP ----- ATP
ADP has two phosphate groups while ATP has three. When one phosphate breaks off of the three it the remaining two become ADP.
ATP = Adenosine Tri Phosphate , which means 3 Phosphates.

The ATP stores energy in an organism. When it changes from ATP to ADP it is only the effect of how many phosphates there are in the two. When the organism is using ATP it uses a phosphate which then changes to ADP after it takes a one of the three phosphates to make it into two.
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.
yes
ATP and it is used for energy
yes ADP + iP ----- ATP
Energy is released.
ATP can break down by hydrolysis (when phosphates are added) Hydrolysis reactions are exergonic, and the reverse of condensation is hydrolysis. (when phosphates are taken away)
