Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How much ATP is produced during the ETC?
A
2
B
4
C
32
D
34
E
36
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The electron transport cycle generates around 30–32 ATP molecules, according to a recent study. This NADH consequently produces one to two ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -The electron transport chain is located on the inner membrane of the mitochondria. The electron transport cycle yields around 30-32 ATP molecules, according to current studies.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The citric acid cycle produces 36 ATP molecules. So, in aerobic respiration, a total of 38 molecules of ATP are created, with 2 ATP molecules formed outside the mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-5: -When a single glucose molecule is broken down in aerobic cellular respiration, about 30-32 ATP molecules are produced within the cell. The number depends on the type of cell that we are considering.
