Question

How are atp and adp related?

Answer 1

ATP and ADP are both used in making energy. They both are made of phosphates.

Step-by-step explanation:

ATP: A molecule that transfers energy from the breakdown of food molecules to cell processes.

ADP: A lower energy molecule that can be converted into ATP by a phosphate group.

Answer 2

ATP and ADP play similar roles in cellular respiration. ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate, and ADP stands for Adenosine Diphosphate. ADP is the result of a loss of one phospate from ATP during glycolysis. ATP is the main source of energy in animals.
