After the NAD removes 2 hydrogen from each PGAL, what does it become?
|
|
NADH2
|
|
|
FADH2
|
|
|
ATP
|
|
|
ADP
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -If glycolysis begins with two glucose molecules, 4 PGAL will be produced. Since two redox equivalents are removed removed from 1 PGAL to form NADH + H+, for 4 PGAL 8 redox equivalents.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oxidation of one molecule of NADH gives rise to ATP molecules while that of one FADH2 molecule generates molecules of ATP.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hence, the correct answer is ‘2’
