Answer:

A. the amount of ATP produced

Explanation:

Glycolysis and Krebs cycle form total 4 ATPs (2 ATP from each pathway) while the electron transport chain present in inner mitochondrial membrane produces as many as 32-34 ATPs by oxidative phosphorylation.

The reducing powers NADH and FADH2 formed during glycolysis and Krebs cycle enter the electron transport chain and donate their electrons to molecular oxygen.

Transport of electrons from these reducing powers to molecular oxygen via electron transport chain generates the proton motive force which in turn drives the synthesis of a large number of ATPs.

Mama L [17]
A polypeptide consists of a group of amino acid chains that are bonded together. The genetic code can easily locate the order of amino acids in a polypeptide because these amino acids are connected covalently to the codons of the mRNA.
