Number of oxygen atoms required for oxidation of 2 N A D H 2 molecule in ETS is
Options
- A1
- B2
- C3
- D4
Correct answer
B. 2
Step-by-step solution
For oxidation of one N A D H 2 molecule, one oxygen atom is required in ETS; thus, for 2 N A D H 2 molecules, 2 oxygen atoms are required. Oxygen functions as terminal electron acceptor during aerobic respiration.
