Respiration In Plants Question 87
The aerobic respiration yields 36-38 ATP [MHCET 2002]
Options:
A) $ 8NADH_2,2FADH_2,2ATP $
B) $ 2NADH_2,2FADH_2,34ATP $
C) $ 12NADH, 30ATP, H_2O $
D) $ 10NADH_2,2FADH_2,2GTP,2ATP $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Aerobic respiration yields $ 10NADH, 2FADH_2, 2GTP $ and $ 2ATP $ resulting into $ 10NADH=10\times 3=30ATP $ $ 2FADH_2=2\times 2=4ATP $ $ 2GTP=2\times 1=2ATP $ $ 2ATP=2\times 1=2ATP $ $ \begin{matrix} 38,ATP \\ \end{matrix} $
