How many ATPs are produced from the complete metabolism of one glucose molecule,assuming that all resulting NADH and FADH₂ is used by the electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation to make ATP? A) 4 B) 16 C) 32 D) 102

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The complete metabolism of one glucose molecule through glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation via the electron transport chain can generate a total of 32 ATP molecules. This includes 2 ATP produced from glycolysis, 2 ATP from the citric acid cycle, and 28 ATP from electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation.
