Partially false. Energy is released when phosphate group in ATP is broken apart. This is because there is high energy stored in the bonds as the attached phosphate groups both have a negative charge.

Sort of. ATP is produced by almost all living things in organelles called mitochondria found in cells.
It stands for adenosine triphosphate and it is the major 'currency' of energy in the body.
It is not energy itself, but rather temporarily "stores" energy in its' bonds. When the third phosphate bond is broken, energy is released. It is the bond between the third and second phosphate that releases energy when broken. The bond between the first and second is not broken.
This creates ADP which has one less phosphate attached to the group.

no. sugar is broken down by respiration, the energy is use to make ATP the cell can use ATP for energy when the phosphate bond is broke. sugar has no phosphate bond.

ATP , adenosine triphosphate has 3 phospahte molecules, Breaking off the last phosphate releases energy and results in ADP adenosine diphosphate.

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.


When phosphate groups are removed and molecules of ADP are formed what energy is released. This energy can be used to perform?

about 1200 kelvin energy released when one molecule of phosphate released from ATP to form ADP and this energy is used in forming bond between two poly nucleotide chain in replication.


When phosphate groups are removed and molecules of ADP are formed they release energy what can this energy do?

about 1200 kelvin energy released when one molecule of phosphate released from ATP to form ADP and this energy is used in forming bond between two poly nucleotide chain in replication.


What ATP bond is broken to release energy?

ATP stands for Adenosine Tri-Phosphate. This means there are three phosphate groups stuck together on the tail of the molecule. Packing that many negatively charged groups together takes energy which is stored in the structure. When the bond between the second and third phosphates is broken, energy is released and the molecule becomes ADP or Adenosine Di-Phosphate.


How is energy releaded from ATP?

The bond between the third phosphate molecule and the second in the ATP molecule is broken down and energy is released. Because it is an exergonic reaction.


What is the roles of adenasine triphosphate in energy and metabolism?

Exergonic reactions release energy and ATP is the one to store that released energy. ATP has a phosphate group, and when transfered to a molecule like an enzyme, the enzyme is "phosphorylated." Phosphorylation allows molecules to get their bonds to a transition state and overcome the activation energy to make a reaction spontaneous.


How does the molecule ATP store and release energy?

ATP is, on its own, a rather unstable molecule. Because of this, the conversion to a more stable molecule releases energy that can be used by other parts of the cell.


Is energy released when two ATP molecules are broken?

The bond between the second and third phosphate is broken forming ADP when energy is released from ATP.


What is the structure different between ATP and ADP?

ATP stands for adenosine tri phosphate. ADP stands for adenosine di phosphate. ATP has three phosphate molecules. ADP has only two phosphate molecules.


Where is the energy stored in a molecule of ATP?

Energy is held in a molecule in several ways:translational energy - the kinetic energy of the molecule depending on its mass and velocityrotational energy - the energy of the spinning of the moleculevibrational energy - the energy of the atoms of the molecule vibrating closer and further from one another - stretching and compressing the bonds. The flexing/bending of the bonds is a special case of this. Of course there is energy in the bonds themselves which when broken can be a source of energy and when formed store energynuclear energy - the binding energies in the nucleus of each atom. Unless you are looking at nuclear decay or some other kind of nuclear reaction, this is not normally an energy you consider when thinking about energy held in a molecule


What is released when the chemical when the chemical bond is broken between the second and third phosphate of an ATP molecule?

Energy is released. This energy is used by the cell to do work.


Is the backbone of a DNA molecule made up of phosphate molecules and deoxyribose sugars?

Yes, you are correct. DNA is made up of a base (adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine), a phosphate and a deoxyribose Sugar. The phosphate and the sugar form the backbone while the bases form the links in between
