the breakdown of food molecules
Glucose is taken up by mitochondria and used to make ATP
ATP is the energy currency of cells, storing and transferring energy within the cell for various metabolic activities. When ATP is used, it is converted to ADP, releasing energy that can be harnessed by the cell for various processes. ADP can then be recycled back into ATP through processes like cellular respiration.
ATP can't lose energy......... because it is energy.
Often ATP IS the end product which is then used by the cell. ATP can be dephosphorylated to form ADP, AMP, and cAMP.
One molecule of ADP can be easily formed to make one form of ATP. All you need to do is add one phosphate group to the ADP and ATP is formed.ADP + P + energy --> ATPADP + P + energy --> ATP

In your body its THE energy source (ATP -> ADP).
The energy needed to power the sodium-potassium pump is provided by ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is broken down into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate, releasing energy that is used to move ions against their concentration gradients.

ATP and ADP are used in cellular respiration to produce sugars. (ATP= energy)
The process of ATP formation from ADP and inorganic phosphate is called phosphorylation. This process occurs during cellular respiration and photosynthesis, where energy from food or sunlight is used to drive the phosphorylation of ADP to form ATP. This conversion of ADP to ATP stores energy that can be used by cells for various energy-requiring processes.

No. They use ATP as an energy source (ADP is left over after the energy is used). There is no storage there. Animals use fat to store energy, plants use starch.
The low energy version of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate). The difference is that ATP has three phosphate groups and ADP only has 2.
