Solution

The correct option is C 19

Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen. It is found in deep-seated tissues plants and animals, germinating seeds, yeasts and bacteria. During anaerobic respiration of yeast, two ATP molecules are produced from each glucose molecule. Hence, 38 ATP will require 19 glucose molecules.
