Often ATP IS the end product which is then used by the cell. ATP can be dephosphorylated to form ADP, AMP, and cAMP.
ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.
chemical energy
Usually energy in the body's obtained from converting ATP into ADP. However, glycolysis, the process of converting glucose to pyruvate, releases energy that turns ADP into ATP.
More ADP, as ATP is constantly being used. ATP is being quickly broken down i.e. one phosphate is "ripped off" and used leaving ADP
ADP + Pi
Often ATP IS the end product which is then used by the cell. ATP can be dephosphorylated to form ADP, AMP, and cAMP.
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

ADP
ATP (converted to ADP). Aerobically it is converted back by mitrochondria by oxidizing hydrogen.
Usually energy in the body's obtained from converting ATP into ADP. However, glycolysis, the process of converting glucose to pyruvate, releases energy that turns ADP into ATP.
Energy is released.
It is acquired by a reactant in an endergonic reaction.
