Solution

The correct option is A One high energy bond
The bond between two phosphate groups in ADP is a phosphoanhydride bond which is less stable and is a high energy bond. ADP breakdowns into Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and inorganic phosphorus (Pi) is released along with a large amount of energy about 7.3 kcal.
ADP→AMP+Pi+7.3kcal
So, the correct answer is A.
