Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The net energy output for one glucose molecule from glycolysis through the Krebs cycle is: 4 ATP, 10 NADH + H+, and 2 FADH2.
Detailed explanation-2: -Therefore, two glucose molecules can generate 76 ATP molecules.
Detailed explanation-3: -Considering these 3 molecules of ATP, the total ATP synthesized by one turn of Krebs cycle is (12+3) i.e., 15 molecules of ATP.
Detailed explanation-4: -In a eukaryotic cell, the process of cellular respiration can metabolize one molecule of glucose into 30 to 32 ATP.
