Total NADH formed by one glucose molecule during Krebs cycle are:
Correct answer: A. 6
- A. 6
- B. 3
- C. 8
- D. 18
Explanation
The total NADH formed by one glucose molecule during the Krebs cycle is 3*2=6. The Krebs cycle is a series of chemical reactions that occur in the mitochondria of cells. It is the second stage of cellular respiration, and it is responsible for the production of ATP. There are two cycles of krebs cycle per glucose molecule. During the Krebs cycle, six molecules of NADH are produced. These molecules are produced in the following reactions:

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.
