You make ATP after you "break" the phosphorus group off and produce ADP. You can add another phosphorus group to ADP producing then another ATP.

What is one way that ATP is used in cells?
Glucose is taken up by mitochondria and used to make ATP
What is the energy molecule created in cellular respiration?
During cellular respiration, the energy rich molelcule ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is produced.Cells undergoing aerobic respiration produce 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 6 molecules of water, and up to 30 molecules of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is directly used to produce energy, from each molecule of glucose in the presence of surplus oxygen.
What two products of the light reactions are used up in the Calvin cycle?
NADPH and ATP
What happens when ATP gives up one phosphate group?
When ATP gives up one phosphate group, it breaks the bond to release energy, and it then becomes ADP.
When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
What happens to the ADP molecule that is produced when cells use the energy in ATP?
Most are taken up by mitochondria and reprocessed into ATP.
What happens during the second during photosynthesis?
the Calvin cycle. it is when the ATP and NADH are used up to form PGAL. Another name for this is the dark reaction.
What is one way that ATP is used in cells?
Glucose is taken up by mitochondria and used to make ATP
Is the conversion of ADP to ATP reversible?
Yes; when ATP is used up (loses a phosphate group), it can be "re-energized" (phosphorylated) by the addition of a free phosphate. ADP is constantly being made into ATP and ATP is constantly being used up and turned into ADP.

NADPH and ATP

What is used up quickly to produce ATP?
glucose & glycogen
How long does an ATP molecule last?
ATP is always alternationg between ADP and ATP. ADP is a simpler form of ATP, which is made up of two phosphate groups instead of three. ATP is usually used in mitochondrial cycles such as glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, and is usually made from ADP during these cycles. So, my first guess would be that ADP is like the 'dormant' stage of ATP, meaning it is in that form when it is not being directly used to 'power' cycles. Therefore, there is no way to 'measure' their 'life span', they are simply being made and broken down according to cell functions.
What happens when ATP gives up one phosphate group?
When ATP gives up one phosphate group, it breaks the bond to release energy, and it then becomes ADP.
What is the basic mechanism by which ATP synthase generates ATP in the mitochondria?
The proton gradient set up by the electron transport chain causes mechanical rotation of ATP synthase, and this energy is used to form ATP
If you run out of oxygen to make energy what happens?
in da muscles energy is used up - ATP is converted to ADP when dere is boatloads of oxygen about, oxygen helps convert ADP back to ATP. but wi'out oxygen the pyruvate g6p product reduces NADH back 2 NAD which can then make bares ATP, no big deal eh?
When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?
ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)
