What is the yield of ATP from complete oxidation of glucose?
Glucose ultimately breaks down into 36 ATP Glycolysis 4 ATP made but 2 was used to start = 2 ATP 2 NADH = 4 ATP 6 ATP From glycolysis Oxidative Phosphorylation 2 NADH = 6 ATP 6 ATP from oxidative phosphorylation Krebs Cycle 2 FADH2= 4 ATP 6 NADH = 18 ATP 2 ATP = 2 ATP 24 ATP from Krebs Cycle 6 + 6 + 24 = 36
