When ATP breaks into ADP is energy given off?

yes


When you are rested do you have ATP or ADP?

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


What happens directly after ATP is used up?

You make ATP after you "break" the phosphorus group off and produce ADP. You can add another phosphorus group to ADP producing then another ATP.


What happens when phosphates are broken off of ATP?

When a phosphate group is removed from ATP (adenosine triphosphate), a nucleotide known as ADP (adenosine diphosphate) is formed.


How does ATP differ from ADP?

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has three phosphate groups attached, serving as the cell's primary energy carrier. When one phosphate group is cleaved off, ATP becomes ADP (adenosine diphosphate), releasing energy that cells can utilize for various functions. ADP can be converted back into ATP through cellular respiration processes.


How do you change ADP to ATP?

The terminal phosphate group is broken off. The negative charge on the phosphate groups make them willing to separate.


Molecules formed from the breaking off of a phosphate group ATP.?

When a phosphate group breaks off from ATP, it releases energy that is used in cellular processes. The resulting molecule is ADP (adenosine diphosphate). ATP is converted to ADP when energy is needed in the cell, and can be converted back to ATP when energy is stored.


What is formed when the terminal phosphate is cut off ATP?

When the terminal phosphate group is removed from ATP, it forms ADP (adenosine diphosphate). This reaction releases energy that can be used for cellular processes.


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.


What might the letter e in the above equation be an abbreviation for?

The letter E in the above equation abbreviates genetic mutation through ATP, as ADP sets off molecules it causes copulation between both ADP and ATP.


ATP can be broken down into?

ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate. When the body breaks up ATP it simply breaks off a single phosphate group creating Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) and energy.


How does ATP couple exergonic and endergonic reactions?

Energy is usually released from the ATP molecule to do work in the cell by a reaction that removes one of the phosphate- oxygen groups, leaving adenosine disphosphate (ADP). When the ATP converts to ADP, the ATP is said to be spent. Then the ADP is usually immediately recycled in mitochondria where it is recharged and comes out again as ATP.
