Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a multifunctional nucleotide that is most important as a "molecular currency"of intracellular energy transfer.
Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), a nucleotide, is an important part of photosynthesis and glycolysis.
ADP can be converted into ATP and is also the low enegry molecule. ATP is the breakdown of food molecules.

What else can I help you with?
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
ATP production formula?
adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP
How is ADP made from ATP?
ADP is made by ATP when one of three peptide bonds of ATP are broken down.
How do ADP and ATP differ in amount of potential chemical energy?
ATP has higher potential chemical energy compared to ADP due to the presence of an extra phosphate group in ATP. This extra phosphate group allows ATP to store and release energy more readily during cellular processes. When ATP is hydrolyzed to ADP, energy is released and can be used by the cell for various functions.
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.
What is the structure different between ATP and ADP?
ATP stands for adenosine tri phosphate. ADP stands for adenosine di phosphate. ATP has three phosphate molecules. ADP has only two phosphate molecules.
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
ATP production formula?
adp+p(i)--->atp ADP +P ---> ATP
How does ADP differ 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.
How are adp and ATP molecules the same?
ATP and ADP are similar in the sense that they are both molecules that release energy to the cells. ADP differs from ATP because it has one less phosphate group. ADP forms after ATP has released energy.
How are ADP and ATP structurally different?
ATP has three phosphate groups (adenosine TRIphosphate) while ADP has only two (adenosine DIphosphate). ATP has more free energy due to this extra phosphate group (has an extra bond).
How do the ATP and ADP molecules look different?
An ATP molecule has an extra phosphate group compared to an ADP molecule. This is because ATP has 3 phosphate groups as where ADP only has two phosphate groups.
What is role is ATP and ADP play in cells?
ATP and ADP are used in cellular respiration to produce sugars. (ATP= energy)
What is a simple equation for reforming ATP?
The equation for reforming ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate is: ADP + Pi + energy → ATP. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme ATP synthase during cellular respiration.
How do ATP and ADP differ in amount of potential energy?
ADP has less potential energy than ATP has. In fact, there are 7.3 kc less energy in ADP than in ATP.
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
How is ADP made from ATP?
ADP is made by ATP when one of three peptide bonds of ATP are broken down.
