How many atp are produced in cell respiration?

Answer 1

3/4 of the ATP is made in respiration

To build on the original answer:

36 ATP are produced from glycolosis to Electron Chain Transport with oxygen being the final electron acceptor.

Some sources cite that anywhere between 28 and 36 ATP are produced but if you plan on taking the MCAT if this question is asked the answer is 36.

Answer 2

It depends on which type.

If you're talking about aerobic cellular respiration (and you probably are), then it's 36 ATP molecules per glucose molecule.

Anaerobic respiration, otherwise known as fermentation, consists only of glycolysis and yields 2 ATP per glucose molecule. By and large, aerobic is much more efficient. Fermentation is adequate for some fungi and bacteria, but is far too sluggish to effectively supply anything multicellular.

Answer 3

After step one of cellular respiration(glycolysis) 4 molecules of ATP are made but 2 are used for the process so that results in only 2 being available for other use.

After the end of the second step(Krebs Cycle) another two are available which then leads to step three(electron transport chain) where about 34 molecules are made resulting in a TOTAL OF 38 ATP MOLECULES by the end of cellular respiration

Answer 4

aerobic cellular respiration produces 38 ATP molecules from 1 glucose molecule

anaerobic cellular respiration produces 2 atp molecules from 1 glucose molecule

Answer 5

There are 36 ATP produced in a process known as cellular respiration

Answer 6

you make 36 minus the 4 you started with so you end up with 32 as your answer

Answer 7

In aerobic 38 are produced. In anaerobic only two are produced

Answer 8

In aerobic respiration 38 ATPs are produced.In anerobic ,just 2 are produced

Answer 9

2, and they are used during glycolisis

Answer 10

36-40 ATP
