A phosphate group is transferred to another molecule often causing a conformational change in that molecule which gets the cells work done.
all that is right but to answer your question you also need to know Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a main source of potential energy. It is composed of adenine (nitrogenous base), ribose (five-carbon sugar), and three phosphates. If one phosphate bonds with adenosine (adenine and ribose), it forms adenosine monophosphate (AMP). If two of the phosphates combine with adenosine, it will make adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Of course, three phosphates are then needed for ATP. ATP molecules deliver energy wherever it is needed in a cell. What makes ATP the perfect candidate for energy release is its last phosphate, which can break and release fairly easily. When chemical bonds are broken, energy is released for the cells to use. With one phosphate removed, the ATP is then converted to ADP, a process called dephosphorylation. However, the ADP can be converted back to ATP if it gains a phosphate again. This process is called phosphorylation. I know that's a lot.
I hope this helped ^^

When ADP is created from ATP what type of reaction occurs?
break down of ATP into adp occurs when the one peptide bond of ATP is broken down.
When ATP loses energy it is converted into?
ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.
When ATP is converted to ADP Where is the energy?
Usually energy in the body's obtained from converting ATP into ADP. However, glycolysis, the process of converting glucose to pyruvate, releases energy that turns ADP into ATP.
What produces chemical energy ATP that can power the cell?
Phosphorylation of ADP produces ATP by storinh chemical energy in the phosphate bond. This ATP is converted to ADP to power the cell.
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 is ATP converted to in respiration?
ADP + Pi

What happens when a phosphates group is removed from an ATP molecule?
Energy is released.

What produces chemical energy ATP that can power the cell?
Phosphorylation of ADP produces ATP by storinh chemical energy in the phosphate bond. This ATP is converted to ADP to power the cell.
What can a molecule of ADP be compared to?
Adenosine diphosphate, abbreviated ADP, is a nucleoside diphosphate. It is an ester ofpyrophosphoric acid with the nucleoside adenosine. ADP consists of the pyrophosphategroup, the pentose sugar ribose, and the nucleobase adenine.ADP is the product of ATP dephosphorylation by ATPases. ADP is converted back to ATP by ATP synthases. ATP is an important energy transfer molecule in cells.So simple answer is: ADP can be compared to ATP.
Which of the following occurs in the light dependent process?
ADP converts to ATP.
What bond is broken when ATP is converted to ADP and energy is released?
chemical energy
How many molecules of ADP can be converted to ATP by the energy released from one molecule of glucose?
32 - 34 molecules of ATP
How does a molecule of ATP convert to ADP?
ATP is converted to ADP when it is used for energy. This can happen during many activities of the cell including replication or transcription of DNA or for "pumping" molecules in and out of the cell against the ion gradient through channels in the bilipid layer.
