Calculate the number of atps generateed from one saturated 16-carbon fatty acid assume that each nadh molecule generates 2.5 atps and that each fadh2 molecule generates 1.5 atps?
From one saturated 16-carbon fatty acid, beta-oxidation produces 7 NADH and 7 FADH2 molecules. Therefore, 7 NADH x 2.5 ATPs/NADH = 17.5 ATPs and 7 FADH2 x 1.5 ATPs/FADH2 = 10.5 ATPs, resulting in a total of 28 ATPs generated.
How many atps are released in respiration?
A net total of 36-38 ATPs are released during aerobic respiration, while only 2 ATPs are released during anaerobic respiration.
What do you invest in glycolysis?
2 ATPs
What is made by glycolysis?
2 ATPs 2 pyruvates
How many ATPs are created in anaerobic respiration?
36
How may ATPS are produced in alcoholic fermentation?
2
Are only 2 ATPs produced for each NADH molecule that enters the last stage of respiration?
The NADH molecule produces of 2 ATPs during the last stage of respiration. Some think that three ATPs are created from the NADH, however, the last stage of respiration is different than ATP and NADH during electron transfers.
How the 38 atps are formed?
It gets produced form glucose aerobic metabolism that consists of 4 steps: 1.glycolisis = 2 ATPs +2 NADH 2.pyruvate oxidative decarboxilation = 1 NADH *2 (because we have 2 pyruvates from the glycolisis) 3. Krebs cycle = (3NADH + 1FADH + 1ATP) * 2 4.Cellular respiration cycle - process where all the NADH and FADH are converted to ATPs. Each NADH = 3ATP, but FADH=2ATP. Thus we get: 1. 8 ATPs 2. 6 ATPs (3*2) 3. 24 ATPs (12*2) --------------------- 38 ATPs
What do mitochondria convert?
They break down glucose.Released energy is stored in ATPs.
What stage of respiration yields the most atps?
electron transport chain
How many ATPs typically from during the electron transport chain?
32
How does ATP complete transport work?
atps combine to break the formula F1U1C1K1
