Question
Chapter 15.1, Problem 4MC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
In what way the early life changed the Earth.
Concept introduction:
Microscopic organisms occupied the early Earth. They used organic material as a source of both energy and carbon. Later, some organisms evolved that could perform photosynthesis using the energy from the Sun. The activities of these organisms greatly altered the species composition on Earth.

One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?
