What happens during ATP hydrolysis?

• ATP is broken down into ADP and Pi, releasing energy.

• ATP is converted into water and carbon dioxide, releasing energy.

• ATP is converted into ATP synthase, which generates energy.

• ATP is converted into glucose, which is used for energy production.

How is energy released during ATP hydrolysis?

• A water molecule is added to ADP, resulting in the formation of ATP and an inorganic phosphate, which releases energy.

• A carbon dioxide molecule is removed from ATP, resulting in the formation of ADP and an inorganic phosphate, which releases energy.

• A phosphate group is removed from ATP, resulting in the formation of ADP and an inorganic phosphate, which releases energy.

• A nitrogen molecule is added to ATP, resulting in the formation of ADP and an inorganic phosphate, which releases energy.
