Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, during the complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose, 38 molecules of ATP are produced.
Detailed explanation-2: -In a eukaryotic cell, the process of cellular respiration can metabolize one molecule of glucose into 30 to 32 ATP.
Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation for Correct option: 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-4: -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.
