Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -From each NADH2 and each FADH2, 1 water moiety is obtained.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer: 32.5 ATP molecules are produced when 10 NADH + H+ and 5 FADH2 are oxidized through ETS.
Detailed explanation-3: -Assertion :Oxidation of one molecule of NADH gives rise to 3 molecules of ATP and that of one molecule of FADH2 produces 2 molecules of ATP. Reason: The number of ATP molecules synthesised depends on the nature of the electron donor.
Detailed explanation-4: -Electrons from NADH and FADH2 are then transferred to molecular oxygen, coupled to the formation of an additional 32 to 34 ATP molecules by oxidative phosphorylation.
