1
Q
ATP
A
Universal energy composed of nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and 3 phosphate groups.
2
Q
Hydrolysis
A
Breaks chemical bond between two molecules, involves the use of a water molecule
3
Q
ADP
A
Product of hydrolysis of ATP. Releases a phosphate ion, therefore releasing energy
4
Q
Phosphorylation
A
Reattaching of phosphate group to ADP. due to ADP being instable and not a good long term energy source
