Solution
The correct option is B ADP
ADP has one phosphate out of which one is directly attached to the ribose with phosphate ester bond and it is low energy bond. The bond between two phosphate groups is a phosphoanhydride bond which is considered as high energy bond. So ADP has only one high energy bond while AMP has only one phosphate ester bond which is low energy bond.
Adenosine is a nucleoside which is formed by sugar and nitrogenous base adenine. High energy phosphate bonds are not present.So, the correct answer is option B.
