ATP (adinine triphosphate) loses a phosphate group to become ADP (adinine diphosphate). The phosphate group was released is referred to as inorganic phosphate. There is also a release of energy as the high energy phosphate bonds are cleaved.
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) looses a phosphate to form ADP (Adenosine diphosphate), and 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.
Hydrolyzed, or water is added to the bond.
Energy
ATP stores chemical energy in its phosphate bonds. Energy is released when the phosphate bond is broken.
ADP - Adenosine Diphosphate
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) looses a phosphate to form ADP (Adenosine diphosphate), and release energy.

ATP energy is stored in its 3 phosphate bonds. When the 3rd phosphate bond is broken, the energy is released. Then it only has 2 phosphate bonds.
The energy stored in ATP can be released by breaking the bond between the second and third phosphate groups. Therefore, the energy is released when a phosphate group is removed.
a molecule of inorganic phosphate is released, creating ADP
Phosphate
Energy is released when phosphate group is removed.
ATP acts as the energy currency of the cell.When ATP becomes cyclic AMP (looses two phosphate groups) it can act as a secondary messenger in the cell; it effects protein activation or gene control.
Energy stored in ATP is released through the breaking of high-energy phosphate bonds. When ATP is hydrolyzed by the enzyme ATPase, a phosphate group is cleaved off, yielding ADP and inorganic phosphate, along with the release of energy that can be used for cellular processes.
