During which stage in the complete oxidation of glucose arc the greatest number of ATP molecules formed from ADP?

Options

  1. Aglycolysis
  2. BKreb's cycle
  3. Cconversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl CoA
  4. Delectron transport chain.

Correct answer

D. electron transport chain.

Step-by-step solution

The electron transport chain is primarily used to send protons across the membrane into the intermembrane space. This create a proton-motive force, which will drive ATP synthase in the final step of cellular respiration to create ATP from ADP and a phosphate group. Related Theory In chemiosmosis, the free energy from the series of redox reactions just described is used to pump hydrogen ions across the membrane. The uneven distribution of H ⁺ ions across the membrane establishes both concentration and electrical gra
