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.

∙ 11y agoADP is when it has 1 less phosphate. ATP has 3 phosphates. ADP is the uncharged form of ATP. cells use ATP to store and release energy

∙ 11y agoThe role of the ATP is to transport chemical energy within cells for metabolism.
The role of the ADP is to take in chemical energy within cells for metabolism.

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
How do ADP and ATP differ in amount of potential chemical energy?
ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.
How is ADP made from ATP?
ADP is made by ATP when one of three peptide bonds of ATP are broken down.
Is the conversion of ADP to ATP reversible?
Yes; when ATP is used up (loses a phosphate group), it can be "re-energized" (phosphorylated) by the addition of a free phosphate. ADP is constantly being made into ATP and ATP is constantly being used up and turned into ADP.

How does ATP differ from ADP?
The biggest difference between ATP and ADP is that ADP contains 2 phosphates. ATP contains 3 phosphates. ADP means adenine di-phosphate and ATP means adenine tri-phosphate.

Are ATP and ADP fuels?
ATP and ADP are not considered fuels. The fuels that are utilized in order to produce ATP and ADP usually come from the food that people eat.
What is role is ATP and ADP play in cells?
ATP and ADP are used in cellular respiration to produce sugars. (ATP= energy)
Which chemical reactions best represents the synthesis of ATP?
adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP
What produces ATP by blinding phosphate groups to ADP?
ADP is exactly the same as ATP except that ATP has one more phosphate group. (ATP=Adenosine Triphosphate, ADP=Adenosine Diphosphate) This means that adding a phosphate group to ADP would make it ATP simply by definition.
When ADP molecules gain phosphates do they become ATP molecules?
yes ADP + iP ----- ATP
