Nucleotide
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. ADP + P ----> ATP
ATP Synthase
ATPase Is an enzyme that works in and around the membrane to break down ATP (Energy Made By The Mitochondria) into ADP
Myosin Adenosine TriPhosphotase- This is the initial enzyme that catalyzes with ATP to form ADP and Inorganic Phosphate; thus releasing energy. Creatine Kinase-comes into play after ADP is formed; catalyzes with it ( the ADP) and creatine phosphate ( which supplies a phosphate group) to reform ATP.
The enzyme is ATP synthase (sometimes referred to as "ATP synthetase").It catalyzes the synthesis of ATP from ADP and free inorganic phosphate. It is a remarkable enzyme, part of which spins round. In fact, ATP synthase has been called a molecular machine.To see an image, use the link below.
When ADP is phosphorylated by a kinase or phosphatase enzyme, it becomes ATP.
ATP synthase
The Electron Transport System
The reaction of creatine phosphate with ADP is catalyzed by the enzyme creatine kinase and is reversible.
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. ADP + P ----> ATP
ATP is regenerated from ADP and inorganic phosphate by an enzyme controlled process called phosphorylation.
ATP Synthase
Enzyme ATPase is involved. It binds ADP and Pi

ATP synthase is an enzyme that speeds up the production of ADP to ATP. It doesn't need anything. It is just doing what is it is meant to do.
