The maximal recovery of energy from oxidation of glucose to CO2 and H2O requires the coordination of the glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle, the electron transport chain and the ATP synthase. During these processes each molecule of glucose generates: 6 molecules of NADH and 1 molecules of FADH2. 10 molecules of NAD* and2 molecules of FADH2. 10 molecules of NADH and 2 molecules of FAD. 10 molecules of NADH and 2 molecules of FADH2. 10 molecules of NAD* and 1 molecules of FADH2.
