The image shows the electron transport chain and ATP synthesis during cellular respiration within a eukaryotic cell. The reaction shows the conversion of glucose into ATP and heat during eukaryotic cellular respiration.   Which of the following is true regarding specialized cellular respiration occurring in newborns and hibernating mammals to maintain body temperature? Additional molecules of glucose are oxidized to generate the additional body heat required for human infants and hibernating mammals. The cellular efficiency of ATP synthesis increases to generate the additional body heat required for human infants and hibernating mammals. The cellular efficiency of the electron transport chain increases to generate the additional body heat required for human infants and hibernating mammals. The electron transport chain and proton gradient efficiency are maintained without ATP synthesis to generate the additional body heat required for human infants and hibernating mammals.
