ATP and ADP Structure and Cycle

The document discusses the ATP-ADP cycle. It contains 4 parts: 1. The structure of ATP contains adenine, ribose, and 3 phosphate groups, with the high energy bond located in the phosphoanhydride bonds. 2. ATP decomposition releases energy (green), forming ADP which contains adenine, ribose, and 2 phosphate groups. 3. ATP synthesis absorbs energy (blue) to reform ATP from ADP by adding a phosphate group. 4. A diagram shows the ATP-ADP cycle with ATP breaking down to release energy and reforming from ADP by absorbing energy through biological processes.

STEM 11-1A

PART 1. THE STRUCTURE OF ATP

• adenine – red, ribose – orange, 3 phosphate groups – yellow.


• Circle the area that represents the HIGH ENERGY bond.

ANHYDRIDE BONDS

PART 2. ATP DECOMPOSITION


• adenine – red, ribose – orange, first two phosphate groups – yellow, lone phosphate group
– purple. COLOR the energy released – green.
• Circle the part of the image that makes up one molecule of ADP.

ADP ONLY CONSISTS TWO


PHOSPHATE MOLECULE
PART 3. ATP SYNTHESIS
• COLOR & LABEL the following in the energy molecule below: adenine – red, ribose –
orange, first two phosphate groups – yellow, lone phosphate group – purple. COLOR the
energy absorbed – blue.

USE YOUR NOTES TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS:
1. What is energy?
• Energy is defined as the ability to do work.

2. (T/F) Organisms need a constant supply of energy to survive.


• True
3. What is the structural difference between ATP and ADP? Compare/contrast
structure of ATP & ADP.
• ATP consists of three phosphate molecules while ADP consists of two
phosphate molecules
• The difference between them is the number of phosphate groups they contain

4. Which structure, ATP or ADP, contains more stored energy? Where is the energy
stored?
• ATP has more stored energy than ADP. The energy of ATP is stored in its high-
energy phosphate bonds which are the Phosphoanhydride Bonds.

5. Which type of macromolecule (protein, carb, nucleic acid, or lipid) is ATP & ADP?
• ATP & ADP are macromolecules of nucleic acids.
