Question

In glycolysis how many ATP are produced if $O_2$ is supplied?

• A. $2$
• B. $12$
• C. $6$
• D. $8$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $2$

During glycolysis, glucose ultimately breaks down into pyruvate and energy; a total of 2 ATP is derived in the process.

Glucose + 2 NAD + 2 ADP + 2Pi--> 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2H + 2 ATP + 2H_{2}O

So, option A is the correct option.
