Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) has a structure that is similar to that of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP); the only difference is that ADP has two phosphate groups instead of three. When a Cell has energy available, it can store significant amounts of energy by adding a phosphate group to the ADP molecules producing ultra-energy rich ATP.
ATP and ADP are the same molecules except for the number of phosphate groups. ATP is adenosine triphosphate and ADP is adenosine diphosphate. As the prefixes indicate, ATP has three phosphate groups while ADP has only two phosphate groups.

adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP
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
ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.
ADP is made by ATP when one of three peptide bonds of ATP are broken down.

ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is formed as a result of combination between ADP(Adenosine diphosphate) & iP(Inorganic Phosphate) ieADP+iP~ATP.
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.

ATP turns into ADP when energy is released along with a phosphate group. once adenine loses its phosphate groups it recylces back into ATP where the cycle starts again.

ATP stands for adenosine tri phosphate. ADP stands for adenosine di phosphate. ATP has three phosphate molecules. ADP has only two phosphate molecules.

ATP is adenosine TRIphosphate with three phosphate groups while ADP is adenosine DIphosphate with only two phosphate groups. The phosphate is used to produce energy in human muscle tissue to do work.
