Question

The net gain of ATP in anaerobic respiration is: (A) 2 (B) 4 (C) 36 (D) 32

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Anaerobic respiration leads to breakdown of glucose into pyruvic and conversion of pyruvic acid to ethyl alcohol. Hence, Net gain from glycolysis

= 2 N A DH + H^{+} + 2 A TP

Loss in anaerobic respiration of

P

. acid

= 2 N A DH + H^{+}

Balance = 2ATP
