ATP production formula?

adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP


Is removing phosphate from ATP to form ADP known as phosphorylation?

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


Which chemical reactions best represents the synthesis of ATP?

adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP


How is ATP regenerated from ADP?

One molecule of ADP can be easily formed to make one form of ATP. All you need to do is add one phosphate group to the ADP and ATP is formed.ADP + P + energy --> ATPADP + P + energy --> ATP


What is the synthesis of ATP from ADP and P?

Phosphorylation


What is a simple equation for reforming ATP?

energy + ADP + P = ATP


What molecule is used by the enzyme ATP synthase to form ATP?

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


What is the equation for ATP synthesis?

ADP (adenosine diphosphate) + P (another phosphate group) ---usable energy--> ATP (Adenosine triphoshate)


What equation shows how ATP is made?

amp+2p=atp 0r adp+p=atp


Is the breakdown of ATP a redox reaction?

It is an exothermic breakdown because it produces energy.


Formula for synthesis and degradation of ATP?

Making ATP: ADP + P + energy (comes from cellular respiration) ----> ATP + water Using ATP: ATP + water ------> ADP + P + energy (this energy is used by cells to do work) The P stands for a phosphate group, not the element phosphorous.


What metabolic reactions occur when a cell uses energy?

ATP releases a phosphate group and becomes ADP ATP = ADP + P + energy.
