adenine and ribose
Adenosine is composed of adenine and ribose molecules.
Adenosine diphosphate. ADP. Two phosphate groups.
ADP (adenosine diphosphate) would be the remaining molecule after two phosphate groups are removed from ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This conversion releases energy that can be used by cells for various biological processes.
Both ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and ADP (adenosine diphosphate) contain an adenosine molecule and a phosphate group. The main difference between ATP and ADP is the number of phosphate groups attached to the adenosine molecule. ATP has three phosphate groups, while ADP has two phosphate groups.
ADP i.e. Adenosine Diphosphate, is comprised of one molecule of adenosine combined with only two phosphate groups hence the suffix 'Di'; while ATP i.e. Adenosine Triphosphate involves the inclusion of another phosphate group making it one molecule of adenosine attached to three phosphate groups, hence the suffix 'Tri'.
ADP i.e. Adenosine Diphosphate, is comprised of one molecule of adenosine combined with only two phosphate groups hence the suffix 'Di'; while ATP i.e. Adenosine Triphosphate involves the inclusion of another phosphate group making it one molecule of adenosine attached to three phosphate groups, hence the suffix 'Tri'.
ADP has two, I think... So ATP would have three. :D
ADP. ATP = adenosine triphosphate (the last part means 'three phosphates', that's the 'tri' bit). ADP = adenosine diphosphate ('two phosphates', 'di' = two).
ADP stands doe adenosine diphosphate have 2 phosphate molecules. the prefix "di" gives a clear clue of what it is. It's former form ATP adenosine triphosphate have 3 phosphate molecules.
Yes, an ATP molecule contains adenosine. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is composed of adenosine (adenine and ribose sugar) and three phosphate groups. When ATP is broken down during cellular processes, the energy stored in its phosphate bonds is released for use by the cell.
There are two ribose molecules found in one molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP).
A molecule is a combination of two or more atoms that are chemically combined.
