ATP is adenosine triphosphate, which is a nucleotide. Nucleotide's consist of a 5-carbon sugar, a nitrogenous base, and one or more phosphate groups. In ATP's case, there are 3 phosphate's attached.
A little bit extra:
ATP works like like a rechargeable battery. When one phosphate comes off, it releases energy and is now referred to as ADP. It can then regain a phosphate and "recharge" to become ATP again.
ATP is a chemical, not a form of energy. However, the energy stored in and used from it is chemical energy.
Chemical energy creates ATP that allows muscle movement. Chemical energy is released in an chemical reaction that often causes heat.
ok well a chemical reaction happens in the mitochindria and this chemical reaction produces ATP which is a type of energy
ATP
No, ATP is a chemical (adenosine triphosphate).
I think the chemical energy in glucoseI transform to chemical energy in ATP. The chemical energy in ATP is transform to heat and Kinetic energyin the cell.
ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi
Yes, the energy produced by ATP is generated by breaking chemical bonds. ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism.
Muscles store and use chemical energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) to carry out their functions.
ATP
ADP is transformed into ATP.
This reaction is a hydrolysis reaction, specifically the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi). It releases energy stored in the high-energy bonds of ATP.
