ATP yield in Aerobic Glycolysis: 5, 6, 7 or 8 ATP/glucose?

Question

Sakshi · Answer

I cycle yields 2 atp and 2nadh molecules .1nadh = 3 atp molecules Therefore, total no of atp molecules = 8

Umakant biswal · Answer

@ gayathri Glycolysis: 2 ATP . Krebs Cycle: 2 ATP . Electron Transport Phosphorylation: 32 ATP. Each NADH produced in Glycolysis is worth 2 ATP (2 x 2 = 4) - the NADH is worth 3 ATP, but it costs an ATP to transport the NADH into the mitochondria, so there is a net gain of 2 ATP for each NADH produced in gylcolysis. the above data is for one complete cycle , so, 8 turns out to be the correct answers . HOPE IT CLEArs your doubt ALL THE BEST ..
