ATP can be broken down into?
ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate. When the body breaks up ATP it simply breaks off a single phosphate group creating Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) and energy.
What makes up adenosine diphosphate?
When a second phosphate group is added its makes adenosine diphosphate AKA (ADP).
How is ATP destroyed?
Through the first law of conservation of matter, matter can neither be created nor destroyed, only changed. This being said, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) can not be destroyed. It can, however, be broken up by several biological reactions into ADP (adenosine diphosphate). During these reactions, energy is released that a cell can use in order to perform certain actions.
Where is ATPase enzyme needed for muscle contraction located?
It is in the mitochodria and speeds up the formation of ATP by breaking down ATP into ADP + energy. Muscle cells have many more mitochrondia than other cells.
What are components of ADP?
Each molecule of ADP is made up of an adenosine head and two phosphates. Adenosine: C10H13N5O4; consisting of an adenine ring (same stuff that's in DNA and RNA) and a ribose sugar (once again, also makes up part of DNA). Phosphates: PO3; the bonds are the key to their energy. The bond between the first phosphate and the adenosine is rock solid, just like in most covalent compounds. The bond between that and the second phosphate, however, is considerably less stable and thus more energetic. That's where ADP ends. But most cellular processes are all about ATP, adenosine triphosphate. You get that by hooking another phosphate onto the end of ATP, but that bond is crazy unstable, ready to burst, cram-jam-packed to the gills with energy. The bond holding on the last phosphate is a hair trigger, that lets loose an explosion (well, on a molecular level0 of usable energy, and every cell in every living organism makes it, needs it, and has a way to get it and harness it. There you go. ATP, neatly explained.
Is glucose a part of adenosine diphosphate?
No, glucose is not a part of adenosine diphosphate (ADP). ADP is composed of an adenine base, a ribose sugar, and two phosphate groups. Glucose is a simple sugar that is a source of energy and is involved in cellular respiration to produce ATP, which can further be broken down to form ADP.
Is adenine part of adenosine diphosphate?
yes it is.
What is short for adenosine diphosphate?
The short form for adenosine diphosphate is ADP.
What sugars are part of adenosine diphosphate?
5 cornered Ribose sugar
Is 2 phosphate groups part of adenosine diphosphate?
Precisely! In adenosine diphosphate, the adenosine refers to an adenine base (found in both DNA and RNA) along with two (from "di" meaning two) phosphate groups.
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
Is ribose part of adenosine diphosphate?
Yes, as Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) is the product of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). The only difference between the two is ADP has on less phosphate group. Both ADP and ATP are composed of one pentose sugar ribose, 2 or 3 phosphate groups, and adenine.
What are some examples of ADP?
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) is oxydatively phosphorylated in the mitochondria to become ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is then dephosphorylated to create energy.
Which of the following is not a part of adenosine disphosphate?
glucose
What is adenosine diphosphate also called?
ADP
What is he shorthand name for adenosine diphosphate?
adp
What does adenosine diphosphate break down into?
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) breaks down to anenosine diphosphate (ADP) which can break down to anenosine monophosphate (AMP).
