Adenosine diphophate (ADP) is formed

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency of the cell. It is used to store energy, until the energy is needed. The energy is extracted by hydrolyzing the ATP molecule and releasing one phosphate group and forming ADP. ADP may again be hydrolyzed to form adenosine monophosphate (AMP).

When ATP loses a phosphate, energy is released and is formed.
