I will try.
Energy that is stored in the glucose of food is harnessed to convert ADP to its less stable, more energetic form ATP in the process of metabolism. The ATP can then be converted back to ADP in various situations that result from the biochemistry of the molecule's location. This conversion of ATP back to ADP releases energy, which is harnessed in countless cellular processes, such as the activation of protein pumps or the contraction of muscle fibers.
Hope this helps. :)
Thank you so much :)
