Detailed explanation-1: -During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts.
Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic respiration is the process of producing cellular energy involving oxygen. Cells break down food in the mitochondria in a long, multistep process that produces roughly 36 ATP. The first step in is glycolysis, the second is the citric acid cycle and the third is the electron transport system.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electron transport from the molecules of NADH and FADH2 made from glycolysis, the transformation of pyruvate, and the Krebs cycle creates as many as 32 more ATP molecules. Therefore, a total of up to 36 molecules of ATP can be made from just one molecule of glucose in the process of cellular respiration.
Detailed explanation-4: -The citric acid cycle produces 36 ATP molecules.
Detailed explanation-5: -The theoretical maximum yield of ATP for the oxidation of one molecule of glucose during aerobic respiration is 38.
