Vedclass · Answer

(B) During the complete oxidation of one molecule of acetyl $	ext{CoA}$ in the Krebs cycle,the following reduced coenzymes are produced:$1$. $3$ molecules of $	ext{NADH} + 	ext{H}^+$$2$. $1$ molecule of $	ext{FADH}_2$$3$. $1$ molecule of $	ext{GTP}$ (which is equivalent to $1$ $	ext{ATP}$).According to the $	ext{ETS}$ (Electron Transport System) stoichiometry:- Each $	ext{NADH} + 	ext{H}^+$ yields $3$ $	ext{ATP}$ molecules.- Each $	ext{FADH}_2$ yields $2$ $	ext{ATP}$ molecules.Calculation via $	ext{ETS}$ only:- $3 	imes 	ext{NADH} = 3 	imes 3 = 9 	ext{ ATP}$- $1 	imes 	ext{FADH}_2 = 1 	imes 2 = 2 	ext{ ATP}$- Total $	ext{ATP}$ from $	ext{ETS} = 9 + 2 = 11 	ext{ ATP}$.Therefore,the total $	ext{ATP}$ synthesized via $	ext{ETS}$ is $11$.
