The given question is incomplete as the model is missing from the question, however, the correct model is attached with the answer :
Answer:
The correct answer is - 2 ATP and 2 pyruvic acids.
Explanation:
The given model represents the glycolysis pathway which is the first of the key metabolic step of cellular respiration. It helps in producing the energy in form of ATP through breaking down a glucose molecule into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid and with a series of enzymatic reactions.
This process also releases energy in the form of 2 molecules of ATP and NADH. The pyruvate or pyruvic acid molecules then moves to the link reaction, where acetyl-CoA is produced.
Thus, the correct answer is - 2 ATP and 2 pyruvic acids.
