Question

Out of 38 molecules of ATP produced upon aerobic respiration of glucose, the break up in ATP production in glycolysis (P), pyruvate to acetyl-CoA formation (Q) and Krebs cycle (R) is as follows: (A) P = 2, Q = 6, R = 30 (B) P = 8, Q = 6, R = 24 (C) P = 8, Q = 10, R = 20 (D) P = 2, Q = 12, R = 24

Correct answer is (b) P = 8, Q = 6, R = 24

Q. Out of 38 molecules of ATP produced upon aerobic respiration of glucose, the break up in ATP production in glycolysis (P), pyruvate to acetyl-CoA formation (Q) and Krebs cycle (R) is as follows:

P = 2, Q = 6, R = 30

P = 8, Q = 6, R = 24

P = 8, Q = 10, R = 20

P = 2, Q = 12, R = 24

Correct answer is (b) P = 8, Q = 6, R = 24
