Through substrate level phosphorylation where a phosphate group is trasnferred directly from a high-energy moleculr to ADP by the action of an enzyme (demonstrated in glycolysis by pyruvate kinase and phosphoglycerate kinase enzymes); or through oxidative phosphorylation where a series of redox reactions generate a proton gradient that drives the production of ATP from ADP by ATP synthase (demonstrated by electron transport chains of mitochondria and chloroplasts).

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?

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.


What happens to energy when ATP becomes ADP?

In ATP molecule Adenine is attached to Ribose sugar to which three phosphate molecules are attached. They are high 'energy' bonds formed during biological oxidation of glucose molecule. From ADP you get the ATP molecule. When body needs energy, this ATP is turned into ADP and 'energy' is released. Which is used for various metabolic processes. ADP can turn into AMP in emergency.


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.


Is ADP a product of cellular respiration?

No, ATP is a product. ADP assists in the creation of ATP in cellular respiration.


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.
