Hello! ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate, and ADP stands for adenosine diphosphate. The difference between the two molecules is that ATP has three phosphate group, and ADP has two phosphate groups.

Should glucose erythrocytes leukocytes and protein appear in the urine
saveliy_v [14]

NO, they should not. Erythrocytes, leucocytes, and proteins (albumin) are not small enough to pass through the capillaries of the glomerulus unless there is damage to the glomerulus. However, glucose does pass through into the glomerular filtrate. Nonetheless, glucose is fully reabsorbed back in the proximal convoluted tubule (unless you have severe diabetes).

How do I get rid of my stretch marks? I am really insecure about them and I hate my body because of them
likoan [24]

By keeping your skin hydrated, you can help keep the elastin that your skin needs to keep from scarring. Using topical creams such as coconut oil will keep your skin moisturized and make stretch marks less likely. Even without treatment, almost all stretch marks will fade over time.
