When apt is broken down into ADP it releases chemical energy that can be used for cellular activity?

ATP (adenosine TRI phosphate), meaining 3 (tri), will lose one phosphate ion and become ADP (adenosine DI phosphate), meaning 2 (di) during a chemical reaction, which will provide an instant source of energy when the body needs it immediately.

What process breaks down glucose before cellular respiration?
Glucose is broken down IN cellular respiration, also called the Kreb cycle. Glucose enters this electron transport chain process intact, and is broken down to CO2 and water, while giving off chemical energy which is stored in the form of ATP molecules for the cell to use for chemical energy in metabolic processes. Glucose is not broken down before cellular respiration; it is broken down IN the process.
What does cellular respiration use and make?
Cellular respiration is a chemical reaction where glucose and oxygen are broken down into carbon dioxide, water and heat energy. This is the energy that our body's need to survive. This reaction takes place in a cell called the mitochondria, often found in muscles
When food is broken down into carbon dioxide and water where is energy released?
during cellular respiration its released in the mitochondria i think
What is the process that releases energy by breaking down food molecules?
The process that releases energy in the body is referred to as internal respiration and involves the ATP molecule. But food is not what takes part in this process, because the food needs to be digested, broken down, into glucose for the body to use it in releasing energy. That glucose can come from any of the three different food products we consume, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
What is broken down into CO2 and H2O during cellular respiration?
Glucose is broken down due to cellular respiration.
What chemical is broken down by respiration?
glucose is broken down by cellular respiration
During which process are food broken molecules broken down to produce chemical potential energy in the form of ATP?
Cellular respiration
What process are food molecules broken down to produce chemical potential energy in the form of ATP?
carbohydrates
The series of chemical reactions in which a molecule of glucose is broken down is called?
The part of cellular respiration in which glucose is broken down is called the glycolysis. The chemical energy to produce ATP come from the breakdown of carbon based molecules into the smaller molecules.

What is released when chemical bonds are broken but cannot produce ATP?
Heat
In a chemical reaction bonds are broken or?
Chemical reactions can be either endothermic (that is, where bonds broken) or exothermic (i.e. where bonds are formed). The former requires thermal energy input; the latter releases heat energy as bonds are formed.
What is the opposite of cellular respiration?
The opposite of cellular respiration (oxidation) would be photosynthesis, the process plants use to create carbohydrates, which contain chemical bonds that can be broken to release energy.
Is electrical energy released to do cellular work when the bonds of ATP are broken?
No, it's chemical energy that is released in the form of phosphate.
What happens to energy when a chemical bond is broken or forms?
When a chemical bond forms, energy is absorbed between the atoms that bond. When a chemical bond is broken, energy is immediately and dramatically released.
What is released when a chemical bond is broken between the second and third phosphate of an ATP molecule?
It isn't. AMP (adenosine monophosphate) remains intact but has no chemical energy to give and it is not broken off. It must be reenergized in the portion of cellular respiration called oxidative phosphorylation, where it goes to ADP (a-diphosphate) and finally to ATP (a-triphosphate), which is as high as the molecule can go and remain stable.
What is the word equation for the process that releases energy in cells?
I assume you mean Cellular Respiration. Aerobic Respiration Chemical Equation C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O --> 6 CO2 + 12 H2O + Energy (as ATP) Simply put C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O is broken down into 6 CO2 + 12 H2O + Energy (as ATP) through Cellular Respiration
