Detailed explanation-1: -Oxidative phosphorylation, the process where electron transport from the energy precursors from the citric acid cycle (step 3) leads to the phosphorylation of ADP, producing ATP. This also occurs in the mitochondria.
Detailed explanation-2: -Step 5 of the Krebs cycle: Succinyl-CoA Synthetase In the second step, succinyl phosphate transfers its phosphoric acid residue on GDP (guanosine diphosphate), so that the energy-rich compound GTP (guanosin triphosphate) and succinate produced.
Detailed explanation-3: -In a eukaryotic cell, the process of cellular respiration can metabolize one molecule of glucose into 30 to 32 ATP. The process of glycolysis only produces two ATP, while all the rest are produced during the electron transport chain.
