Question
Chapter 27, Problem 65P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The reason of total count of 30 ATP’s in glycolysis whereas the equation indicates 2 ATP formation needs to be explained.
Concept Introduction: Glycolysis is the first step that forms pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen means aerobic respiration, this pyruvate enters in the Krebs cycle and extracts energy in the form of electrons transfer. The products of citric acid cycles act as precursors for electron transport chains and produces ATP as energy coins.

Why does Glycolysis only release a small amount of the total available energy that can be harvested from glucose?
Estimate the number of ATP molecules produced from a 15-gram glucose. (Molar mass glucose = 180.16 g/mol).
The average adult consumes approximately 11,700 kJ per day. Assuming that the metabolic pathways leading to ATP synthesis operate at 50% thermodynamic efficiency, about 5850 kJ ends up in the form of synthesized ATP.

Imagine that creatine phosphate, rather than ATP, is the universal energy carrier molecule in the human body. Assume that the cellular concentrations of creatine phosphate, creatine, and phosphate are 21.7 mM, 2.17×10-3 mM, and 6.30 mM, respectively. Calculate the weight of creatine phosphate that would need to be consumed each day by a typical adult human if creatine phosphate could not be recycled. Estimate the free energy of hyrdolysis of creatine phosphate under cellular conditions to determine how many moles are required. Use the standard…
