Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
AMP is adenosine monophosphate, so there is one phosphate group in the compound.
"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.
This seems more like a biochemistry question but, AMP stands for Adenosine monophosphate. So, there is one phosphate in AMP.
NaCl provides Na+ ions that will block negative charge from phosphates on DNA. Negatively charged phosphates on DNA cause molecules to repel each other. The Na+ ions will form an ionic bond with the negatively charged phosphates on the DNA, neutralizing the negative charges and allowing the DNA molecules to come together
Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
Adenosine plus 3 phosphates, called adenosine triphosphate, or ATP.
The answer is the one that has the highest number of phosphates.
ATP = Adenosine Tri Phosphate , which means 3 Phosphates.
AMP is adenosine monophosphate, so there is one phosphate group in the compound.
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 :)
ADP. ATP = adenosine triphosphate (the last part means 'three phosphates', that's the 'tri' bit). ADP = adenosine diphosphate ('two phosphates', 'di' = two).

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.
ATPynthetatse is an enzyme that rejoins phosphates back to the adenosine in ATP molecules.
This seems more like a biochemistry question but, AMP stands for Adenosine monophosphate. So, there is one phosphate in AMP.
Phosphates and sugars.
