Waec Model Questions Vol1 2018 Biology Question 29
Practice objective / multiple choice question 29 from the 2018 Waec Model Questions Vol1 Biology examination.
During aerobic respiration of one molecule of glucose, the following yields are obtained:\n- Glycolysis: net 2 ATP and 2 NADH (each NADH from glycolysis yields 2 ATP because of the shuttle).\n- Pyruvate oxidation: 2 NADH.\n- Krebs cycle: 2 ATP, 6 NADH and 2 FADH₂.\nEach mitochondrial NADH yields 3 ATP and each FADH₂ yields 2 ATP. Four ATP are spent to transport the two cytosolic NADH into the mitochondrion. What is the net number of ATP molecules produced from one glucose molecule?
