When ATP molecules gain phosphates they become ATP molecules?

yes ADP + iP ----- ATP


How does an ATP become an ADP in photosynthesis and what is released in the process?

When producing diPGA by PGA. Energy is released there by ATP


When ADP molecules gain phosphates do they become ATP molecules?

Yes, when ADP (adenosine diphosphate) gains a phosphate group, it becomes ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This process is part of cellular respiration and is known as phosphorylation. ATP is the primary energy carrier molecule in cells.


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 do you change ADP to ATP?

The terminal phosphate group is broken off. The negative charge on the phosphate groups make them willing to separate.


What are some examples of ADP?

ADP (adenosine diphosphate) is oxydatively phosphorylated in the mitochondria to become ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is then dephosphorylated to create energy.


What molecule breaks down ATP?

The molecule that breaks down ATP is called ATPase. It is an enzyme that hydrolyzes ATP into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate, releasing energy that can be used by the cell for various processes.


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.
