Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which steps show ATP production
A
Phospho enol pyuruvate to pyuruvate
B
1, 3 bis phospho glyceric acid to 3 phospho glyceric acid
C
3 phospho glyceraldehyde to 1, 3 bis phospho glyceric acid
D
A and B
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration is a series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce ATP, which may be used as energy to power many reactions throughout the body. There are three main steps of cellular respiration: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct answer is ‘A= Mitochondrial matrix, B= Inner mitochondrial membrane’.

Detailed explanation-3: -Oxidative phosphorylation is where most of the ATP actually comes from. It consists of two steps-the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis-which create and use an electrochemical gradient to produce ATP from ADP.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solution : In 6th and 9th steps of glycolysis 4 ATP molecules (two from each 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde molecule) are formed and two ATP molecules are consumed in the first and third steps of glycolysis.
