ATP, or adenosine , is
formed after binding of one
(phosphorylation) to one
(adenosine diphosphate) molecule.
is a process stores energy into
produced ATP molecule.

ATP gives energy the cellular
metabolism loses one of
phosphates and ADP .

ADP can also more phosphates and
AMP (adenosine
monophosphate) even non
phosphorylated . Adenosine
production from is a solution
in tissues that urgent oxygen
supply, example, in the during
myocardialinfarction (heart ),
since adenosine has local vasodilator
effect providing faster vasodilation
other physiological methods.
