    The correct answer is AMP+H2O→ Adenosine + pi

    Explanation:

    The above reaction is least energetic because there is no phosphoanhydride bond present with adenosine mono phosphate. Phospho anhydride bond is an energy rich bond.

    As a result hydrolysis of AMP generates very little amount of energy in comparison to the hydrolysis of ATP and ADP.
