Best Answer

The ATP system is an anaerobic system which produces explosive energy for roughly around 2 seconds. In this system there are 3 phosphates which produce energy when the bonds are broken by creatine kenase. The ATP system is built from ADP, which includes 2 phosphates + phosphate + energy. However the body only stores small amounts of ATP therefore once used up it needs to resynthesise.

Energy is stored in the phosphate bond form when ADP receives a phosphate group and becomes ATP.

You shouldn't find out on Answers.com because it is a useless site, ask.com is better. Anyway ATP stores energy and ADP releases energy.

ADP


All organisms use ADP to store energy?

No. They use ATP as an energy source (ADP is left over after the energy is used). There is no storage there. Animals use fat to store energy, plants use starch.


Compare and contrast ATP and ADP?

The purpose of ATP is to store energy. ATP stands for adenosine tri-phosphate, and the energy is mostly stored in the third phosphate bond. ATP is used by cells 24/7 as a form of energy. The purpose of ADP is to have to potential to store energy. ADP stands for adenosine di-phosphate, and when another phosphate is added onto the molecule it is called ATP and will store energy. When ATP releases energy the third phosphate comes off and it becomes ADP.


Does ADP store more energy than ATP?

no! atp stores more! :)


What is ATP where does it store energy What is ADP how is it related to ATP?

ATP is what energy is stored as in mitochondria in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. ADP is what is left when a triphosphate is used for energy in the cell for example facilitated diffusion where ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is used and it then becomes ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate).


How is the main differences between ADP and ATP important in the way a cell stores energy?

ADP has two phosphate groups while ATP has three phosphate groups. Each phosphate group stores energy, so ATP would store more energy than ADP.


Does cellular respiration make molucules that store energy?

If you're referring to ADP to ATP, then yes. All other energy storing molecules ... no.


What is the relationship between ADP and Atp?

Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) has a structure that is similar to that of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP); the only difference is that ADP has two phosphate groups instead of three. When a Cell has energy available, it can store significant amounts of energy by adding a phosphate group to the ADP molecules producing ultra-energy rich ATP.


When ATP loses energy it is converted into?

ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.


How do ADP and ATP differ in amount of potential chemical energy?

ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.

Is ATP conversion to ADP anabolic or catabolic?

Energy in the body is formed when ATP is broken down into ADP. This reaction is therefore exothermic. Thus, the reverse reaction is going to be endothermic because energy is required in order to attach the phosphate to the ADP.
