EMP can produce a total of how many ATP under aerobic condition.
Options
- A6
- B8
- C24
- D38 ATP
Correct answer
B. 8
Step-by-step solution
Glycolysis is commonly known as the EMP pathway after the name of scientist Embden-Meyerhoff-Parnas. In glycolysis, 8 ATP are produced of which 4 are formed from substrate-level phosphorylation and 6 are formed by oxidation of NADH in ETS two molecules of ATP are consumed, thus net gain is 8ATP .
