How many ATP are produced in aerobic oxidation?

In aerobic oxidation, the complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose typically produces about 30 to 32 molecules of ATP. This process occurs through glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. The exact number can vary slightly depending on the efficiency of the electron transport chain and the shuttle systems used to transport electrons into the mitochondria.


Why Are there so many steps in the complete oxidation of glucose and not just one?

The complete oxidation of glucose involves multiple steps to efficiently extract energy and manage the release of electrons. Each step allows for the gradual breakdown of glucose, which helps to capture energy in the form of ATP and NADH while minimizing the release of heat. This process also enables the cell to control the metabolic pathways, ensuring that intermediates can be used for other biosynthetic processes. Additionally, a multi-step process helps prevent oxidative damage by controlling the flow of electrons through the electron transport chain.

Each time a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized by aerobic respiration how many oxygen molecules are required?

Exactly four. Wouldn't it actually be six because the glucose molecule is set up as : C6H12O6? Yes, it's actually 6


Approximately what percentage of the energy of glucose is transferred to storage in ATP as a result of the complete oxidation of glucose to CO2 and water in cellular respiration?

Energy is measured in calories. 2 ATP gives a gain of 14 kcal. The glucose in glycolysis that grants these ATP is worth 686 kcal. Therefore, only about 2 percent of the energy is released.
