it is the ratio of the ADP and ATP produced in a cell, based on the viable conditions of the cell. A proliferating cell produces more ATP than ADP. This even inlcudes cancerous cells that are proliferating out of contorl. Meanwhile, cells that are undergoing apoptosis, or natural programmed cell death, or cells that are undergoing necrosis, or death induced by harsh environmental factors, have more ADP compared to ATP because the cell is not proudcing ATP while hydrolyzing the remaining ATP into ADP. ATP, by the way, is one of the molecules that is used for energy to carry out tasks 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?

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 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


What is ATP where does it store energy What is ADP how is it related to ATP?

ATP is what energy is stored as in mitochondria in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. ADP is what is left when a triphosphate is used for energy in the cell for example facilitated diffusion where ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is used and it then becomes ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate).


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.


How many ADP are required in glucose?

Adenosine Diphosphate that is ADP is a product of ATP that is Adenosine triphosphate. When ATP breaks down it gives ATP = ADP + iP (phosphate group) Actually 36 ATP molecules are required in Glucose
