adenosine triposphat is abbrivated as atp. atp molecule is energy storing compound.it is essential chemical for life. on hydrolysisthese bonds release great energy avd its value is 7.3 k cal
There is only one type of ATP and it is a molecule all of its own.
ATP is an active molecule in cellular processes.
ATP
ATP or adenosine triphosphate, is involved in energy transfer.
2 ATP are produced in anaerobic respiration(fermentation)
ATP (the molecule) is not considered to be a currency.
During glycolysis, ATP is both consumed and produced. Two molecules of ATP are consumed in the initial steps of glycolysis to activate the glucose molecule. However, four molecules of ATP are then produced during the later steps, resulting in a net gain of two ATP molecules per glucose molecule metabolized.
ATP serves as the primary energy currency in cells, storing and transferring energy for cellular processes through the hydrolysis of its high-energy phosphate bonds.
Low concentration to high concentration; ATP is used
ADP
Atp
The phosphate group is the part of the ATP molecule that breaks free when ATP is used for energy, converting ATP to ADP (adenosine diphosphate). This release of the phosphate group provides the energy needed for cellular processes.
