How many ATP are formed by oxidation of one glucose molecule in liver cells ?

Options

  1. A36
  2. B38
  3. C2
  4. D8

Correct answer

B. 38

Step-by-step solution

In liver cells and prokaryotic cells, 38 ATP are produced by the complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose.  Glycolysis 2 ATP directly =2 ATP 2 mol. of NADH =6 ATP \begin{aligned} \text{ Glycolysis } 2 \text{ ATP directly } & =2 \text{ ATP } \\ 2 \text{ mol. of NADH } & =6 \text{ ATP }\end{aligned} Pyruvic acid to Acetyl Co-A 2 mol. of NADH = 6 ATP Citric acid 6 mol. of NADH = 18 ATP cycle 2mol. of FADH =4ATP2mol. of GTP =2ATP Total =38ATP\begin{array}{ll}2 \mathrm{ mol} . \text{ of FADH } & =4 \mathrm{ATP} \\ 2 \mathrm{ mol} . \text{ of GTP } & =2 \mathrm{ATP} \\ \text{ Total } & =38 \mathrm{ATP}\end{array}
