ATP releases energy when its phosphate bonds are broken through hydrolysis (ATP + H2O -> ADP + Pi + energy), providing energy for cellular processes.

| Front | how ATP provides energy 2.1.3(c) |
|---|---|
| Back | - energy breaks bonds, and energy release when bods form - little energy required to break last bond between po4`s but large amount of energy released when the PO4 undergoes other reactions (more energy release than taken in) ATP + H2O > ADP + Pi + energy - hydrolysis to break bond, ADP now has 2 PO4 groups and the inorganic phosphate released |
