ADP stands for Adenosine Diphosphate/Adenosine pyrophosphate.It is associated with energy flow/ respiration in living beings.
ADP contains the following structural components:
1. Sugar backbone( ribose sugar)
2.Nucleotide base- Adenine- attached to the 1'-C of the ribose sugar.
3. Two phosphate groups- these are attached to the 5'- C atom of the ribose sugar.
This is released as a by-product during the hydrolysis of ATP- Adenosine triphosphate.Also ATP can be synthesized from ADP by the process of phosphorylation.
