Question

The complete catabolism of one molecule of C₆H₁₂O₆ into carbon dioxide and water produces a larger amount of ATP in aerobic prokaryotes than it does in aerobic eukaryotes because aerobic prokaryotes:

always produce ethanol rather than lactic acid as a byproduct

have no transport costs to get NADH into mitochondria
generate more molecules of FADH₂ during aerobic respiration
are able to use pyruvate as a substrate for fermentation
