Question

cellular respiration uses one glucose molecule to produce a total of
a 28 ATPs
b 24 ATPs
c 36 ATPs
d 2 ATPs

Answer 1

Cellular respiration typically produces a total of approximately **36 ATPs** from one molecule of glucose under optimal conditions. This includes ATP produced during glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, the correct answer is:

**c 36 ATPs**
