Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following are examples of FOOD fuels that, when broken down, can provide energy for ATP resynthesis?
A
carbohydrates, creatine phosphate and fats
B
creatine phosphate, adenosine diphosphate and carbohydrates
C
protein, carbohydrates and fats
D
creatine phosphate, fats and protein
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The resynthesis of ATP by mitochondrial respiration occurs in mitochondria and involves the combustion of fuel in the presence of sufficient oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose and glycogen are converted to glucose-6-phosphate before they can be used to generate energy. One fate of glucose-6-phosphate is conversion to lactic acid, which results in the formation of three molecules of ATP per glycogen molecule or two molecules of ATP per glucose molecule (anaerobic glycolysis).
