b. ATP is hydrolyzed and turned into ADP
ATP
usually releases energy by breaking down the weak phosphate cell
present. The energy released due to the breaking down of the phosphate
cell is then utilized. The ATP is converted to ADP. Whenever a cell
feels the necessity for energy it releases a phosphate to gather the
energy. It is an automatic and ongoing process. The weak bond between
the second and the third phosphate is always targeted for turning ATP to
ADP. This is the reason ATP is considered the main energy currency for
the cell.
