C. Chemical energy is released when bonds in ADP are broken to form ATP
D. Chemical energy can only be stored as ADP

A - True.
B - False. ATP -> ADP releases energy.
C - False. ADP -> ATP represents storing energy. (Also you can't "break down" ADP into ATP.)
D - False. Glucose and ADP / ATP can both store energy.
Answered by Neko
What is true of chemical energy is that chemical energy can be stored more efficiently as glucose than it can be as ATP. All the other answers in this case don't really apply. The correct answer is therefore A.

When ATP is broken down to ADP we get a release of energy - B and C are therefore wrong. Energy is broken in more ways as only ADP - D is also wrong. Only A stays as the correct answer.
