Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The number of ATP molecules formed by formation of pyruvate from glucose should be predicted.
Concept Introduction:
A reaction consisting of series of biochemical reactions which releases stored chemical energy from the end product of glycolysis (acetyl CoA). It is termed as citric acid cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle or Kreb's cycle. Citric acid cycle takes place in mitochondria.
(b)
Interpretation:
The number of ATP molecules formed by formation of acetyl CoA from pyruvate should be predicted.

(c)
Interpretation:
The number of ATP molecules formed by formation of 2 molecules of acetyl CoA from glucose should be predicted.

(d)
Interpretation:
The number of ATP molecules formed by formation of 4 molecules of carbon dioxide from 2 molecules of acetyl CoA should be predicted.
