Detailed explanation-1: -During anaerobic respiration of yeast, two ATP molecules are produced from each glucose molecule. Hence, 38 ATP will require 19 glucose molecules.
Detailed explanation-2: -During citric acid cycle, 36 ATP molecules are produced. So, all together there are 38 molecules of ATP produced in aerobic respiration and 2 ATP are formed outside the mitochondria.
Detailed explanation-3: -In eukaryotic cells, the theoretical maximum yield of ATP generated per glucose is 36 to 38, depending on how the 2 NADH generated in the cytoplasm during glycolysis enter the mitochondria and whether the resulting yield is 2 or 3 ATP per NADH.
Detailed explanation-4: –During the complete process of aerobic respiration the total number of ATP molecules produced are 38. This process occurs through the breakdown of one molecule of glucose.
