1 phosphate group is added to ADP, and energy is required.

Answer: ADP ( adenosine diphosphate) is a lower energy molecule, which is converted to ATP ( adenosine triphosphate) by the addition of one high energy phosphate group.

This is an endergonic process as it requires energy.

ATP thus formed in this reaction is a high energy molecule as it stores large amount of energy, which is present in the phosphoanhydride bond ( formed between phosphate).

The reaction can be written as-

ADP + Pi → ATP
