What molecule forms when ATP loses a phosphate?

ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) looses a phosphate to form ADP (Adenosine diphosphate), and release energy.


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.


What does ATP release when it loses a phosphate group?

ATP release one phosphate atom through the craps cycle, it will reformed to 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.


What are in the two functions of ATP?

ATP acts as the energy currency of the cell.When ATP becomes cyclic AMP (looses two phosphate groups) it can act as a secondary messenger in the cell; it effects protein activation or gene control.


The energy of the Atp molecule is stored within which phosphate groups?

The energy of the ATP molecule is mainly stored in the high-energy bonds of the outermost phosphate group, known as the gamma phosphate group. When this phosphate group is hydrolyzed, releasing energy, it forms ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate.


When ADP forms ATP energy is?

ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.


What is formed when the terminal phosphate is cut off ATP?

When the terminal phosphate group is removed from ATP, it forms ADP (adenosine diphosphate). This reaction releases energy that can be used for cellular processes.


How are adp and ATP molecules the same?

ATP and ADP are similar in the sense that they are both molecules that release energy to the cells. ADP differs from ATP because it has one less phosphate group. ADP forms after ATP has released energy.


How do ATP and creatine phosphate interact?

Creatine phosphate supplying energy to regenerate ATP from ADP and phosphate.


How many phosphate are on ATP?

There are three phosphate groups on ATP (adenosine triphosphate).


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
