One glucose on complete oxidation yields 36 ATP. During this oxidation of glucose, what is the contribution of the Krebs cycle via oxidative phosphorylation?

Step-by-step solution

During oxidation of glucose through Kreb's cycle 6 molecules of NADH+H+ are produced and 2 molecule of FADH2 is produced. One molecule of NADH +H+ produces 3 ATP and one molecule of FADH2 produced 2 ATP in oxidative phosphorylation. Thus total 22 ATP are produced.
