removing the terminal bond in atp is a exothermic reaction, so energy is produced for use in other processes in the cell
SPECIFIC CORRECT ANSWER: the release of energy
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
Which enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to a protein?
The enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to a protein is called a protein kinase.
What are two differences between ADP and ATP?
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) has two phosphate groups, while ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has three phosphate groups. ADP is the result of ATP losing a phosphate group during cellular processes, releasing energy, which can be used to fuel cellular activities.
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.
Is ATP made up of ADP and a phosphate group?
Yes, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is made up of adenine, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups. When ATP is hydrolyzed, it forms ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and a free phosphate group, releasing energy that can be used by cells.

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
Energy is released from ATP when a phosphate group is?
Hydrolyzed, or water is added to the bond.
What is the difference between ADP and ATP?
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) has two phosphate groups, while ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has three phosphate groups. The addition or removal of a phosphate group between ADP and ATP is important in cellular energy transfer. ATP is the primary energy carrier in cells, while ADP is the result of ATP losing a phosphate group during energy release.
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).
What is released when a ATP looses a phosphate?
ATP (adinine triphosphate) loses a phosphate group to become ADP (adinine diphosphate). The phosphate group was released is referred to as inorganic phosphate. There is also a release of energy as the high energy phosphate bonds are cleaved.
Which enzyme catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to a protein?
The enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to a protein is called a protein kinase.
Explain why ATP molecule splits?
ATP contains three phosphate groups. The third phosphate group (the outermost one) is called the alpha phosphate. The breaking of this phosphate bond is accompanied by the release of a large amount of energy which can be used to drive key steps in metabolic reactions. With the removal of alpha phosphate, the remainder molecule is ADP
What result from the removal of a phosphate group from ATP?
removing the terminal bond in atp is a exothermic reaction, so energy is produced for use in other processes in the cell SPECIFIC CORRECT ANSWER: the release of energy

When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
What are two differences between ADP and ATP?
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) has two phosphate groups, while ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has three phosphate groups. ADP is the result of ATP losing a phosphate group during cellular processes, releasing energy, which can be used to fuel cellular activities.
How do ATP store and release energy?
ATP or adenosine triphosphate stores and releases energy by adding or breaking off one of the phosphate molecules on its tail. When a phosphate molecule breaks off of ATP it releases energy. Likewise, if an ADP (a ATP with one lose phosphate group than ATP) gains a phosphate group, energy is stored.
