It contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules except for parts of the loop of Henle which descend into the renal medulla. It also contains blood vessels and cortical collecting ducts. The renal cortex is the part of the kidney where ultrafiltration occurs.

Why does DNA replication have to occur before cell division? Explain what would happen if it did not occur
SCORPION-xisa [38]

At the complete end of cellular respiration, how many molecules of ATP are produced
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

38 ATP

Explanation:

On complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose yields 38 ATP.  Break up of energy production is given below:  

  • During glycolysis 2 ATP and 2 NADH is produced.
  • During formation of Acetyl CoA, 2 NADH is produced.  
  • During Citric Acid Cycle, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH₂ are produced.  

Finally during Electron transport chain, reduced coenzymes NADH and FADH₂ oxidised to release ATP. Each NADH produce 3ATP and each FADH₂ produces 2 ATP. Altogether 10 NADH is produced during entire process of cellular respiration which yield 30 ATP and 2 FADH₂ yields 4 ATP. Therefore, on complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose yields 38 ATP.
