Question

Glucose is metabolized through glycolysis to two pyruvate molecules; the two pyruvates are further metabolized through the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex to the acetyl groups of two acetyl-CoA molecules; the acetyl groups of the two acetyl-CoA molecules can each go through one turn of the Krebs cycle (after combining with oxaloacetate). To this point, the above processes produceATP molecules (or ATP equivalents) through substrate-level phosphorylation reactions. O one O two O five O four O three O six

Explanation / Answer

Ans : Four

Two molecules of ATP are produced in glycolysis and kreb's cycle each using substrate level phosphorylation.

In this , the enzyme transfers a phosphate group from the organic molecule (substrate) to the ADP molecule to produce ATP.
