Vedclass · Answer

(C) The complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose involves glycolysis ($EMP$ pathway),the link reaction,and the $TCA$ cycle (Krebs cycle).During glycolysis,$2 \ ATP$ and $2 \ NADH$ are produced.During the link reaction,$2 \ NADH$ are produced.During the $TCA$ cycle,$2 \ GTP$ (or $ATP$),$6 \ NADH$,and $2 \ FADH_2$ are produced.Depending on the shuttle system used to transport electrons from cytosolic $NADH$ into the mitochondria (malate-aspartate shuttle or glycerol-phosphate shuttle),the total yield varies.Using the malate-aspartate shuttle,the total yield is $38 \ ATP$.Using the glycerol-phosphate shuttle,the total yield is $36 \ ATP$.Therefore,the net gain is $36$ or $38 \ ATP$.
