Main Difference – ADP vs ATP

ATP and ADP are molecules containing a great amount of stored chemical energy. The Adenosine group of ADP and ATP is composed of Adenine although they also contain phosphate groups. Chemically, ATP stands for Adenosine Tri Phosphate and ADP stands for Adenosine Di Phosphate. The third phosphate of ATP is attached to the other two phosphate groups with a very high energy bond, and a large amount of energy is released when that phosphate bond is broken. ADP results in the removal of the third phosphate group from ATP. This is the key difference between ATP and ADP. However, compared to ATP, ADP molecule has much less chemical energy, because the high-energy bond between the last 2 phosphates has been broken. Based on the molecular structure of ATP and ADP, they have their own of ADP. In this article, let’s elaborate what are the differences between ATP and ADP

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the main energy carrier molecule used living things. The difference between ATP and ADP, or adenosine diphosphate, is found in the number of phosphate groups, 3 for ATP and 2 for ADP. You will see these phosphate groups in the chemical structure of ATP on the left side.
Both ATP and ADP are composed of a ribose sugar, adenosine, and phosphate groups. ATP molecule is composed of three phosphate molecules while ADP is composed of two phosphate molecules. The main difference between ATP and ADP is the number of phosphate molecules in each type of nucleotide.
