During a 20-minute workout, a person burns 350 calories. What is the number of grams of glucose undergoing glycolysis in muscle cells with ample supply of oxygen? NADH in muscle cells is transported via the glycerol phosphate shuttle (which byhpasses Complexes I and II of the ETC). The human ATP synthase has 8 c subunits. Take note: Molar mass of glucose is 180 g/mol 1 calorie = 4.184 J phosphorylation potential in muscle cells is ~55 kJ/mol
