Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The majority of ATP synthesis occurs in cellular respiration within the mitochondrial matrix: generating approximately thirty-two ATP molecules per molecule of glucose that is oxidized.
Detailed explanation-2: -In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts.
Detailed explanation-3: -During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Energy released during the reaction is captured by the energy-carrying molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Detailed explanation-4: -net yield of 34 ATP per glucose molecule.
