How any ATP are formed per glucose molecule in Krebs cycle?
Correct answer: A. 2
- A. 2
- B. 24
- C. 6
- D. 28
Explanation
1 ATP is received when one Krebs cycle turns, so in case so glucose, the Krebs cycle will turn for two times, we will get 2 ATP from the Krebs cycle. Although we also get other things, such as NADH2 and FADH2 but the yield of ATP in the electron transport chain is so 2 is the right answer.

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
