Question

Consider the stage of cellular respiration that is shown in the diagram. mc001-1.jpg What is the net ATP production at this stage of cellular respiration? 2 ATP 4 ATP 32 ATP 36 ATP

Answer 1

The process being described in the diagram is Glycolysis; Thus the answer is 2ATP.

Answer 2

The process being described in the diagram is Glycolysis; Thus the answer is 2ATP.
The initial glucose 6-carbon molecule that is eventually broken down into 2 pyruvate 3-carbon molecules. Notice that 2 ATP are initially invested for a total of 4 ATP to be released. The Net ATP Production is 4ATP (released)-2ATP(invested) = 2 ATP.
