Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.

What is the highest energy form of adenosine?

The answer is the one that has the highest number of phosphates.


How many phosphates does atp contain?

ATP = Adenosine Tri Phosphate , which means 3 Phosphates.


How many phosphates would AMP have?

AMP is adenosine monophosphate, so there is one phosphate group in the compound.


How does ATP compare with the nucleic acids in DNA and RNA?

Do you mean the difference between ATP and ADP? Atp (adenosine triphosphate) is adenine, ribose and 3 phosphates where is Adp (adenosine diphosphate) is adenine, ribose and 2 phosphates. Its in the name what the difference is :)


What is ATP with out a third phosphate group?

ADP. ATP = adenosine triphosphate (the last part means 'three phosphates', that's the 'tri' bit). ADP = adenosine diphosphate ('two phosphates', 'di' = two).


Does DNA contain phosphate?

"DNA is essentially made up of a sequence of nucleotides, each of which are associated with one molecule of phosphate." This is true, however not completely. Let's look at an example. Say we have a DNA molecule that is 10 base pairs long ( double stranded, so actually has 20 bases). The statement suggests we would have 20 phosphates in this molecule of DNA. However, we actually have 24. This is because the nucleotides situated at the 5' terminals of each strand have 3 phosphates rather than one. Since we have 2 5' terminals we have an excess of 4 phosphates which we did not account earlier, so instead of 20, we are now at 24 phosphates.


What are Free Nucleotides?

Free Nucleotides are ones that exist in the form of a triphosphate or three phosphates. When it is combined in DNA, the nucleotide loses two phosphates and only one phosphate is included in the DNA.


What does the enzyme ATPsynthetatse do?

ATPynthetatse is an enzyme that rejoins phosphates back to the adenosine in ATP molecules.


How many phosphates are in AMP?

This seems more like a biochemistry question but, AMP stands for Adenosine monophosphate. So, there is one phosphate in AMP.


What is in the backbone of DNA?

Phosphates and sugars.
