f ATP generated per glucose molecule. View Available Hint(s) If the citric acid cycle was interrupted after the reaction that forms citrate, predict how this would affect A. the total amount of ATP generated per glucose molecule.B. The amount of ATP would be reduced from a total of 38 ATP to 22 ATP. C. The amount of ATP would be reduced from a total of 38 ATP to 8 ATP. D. The amount of ATP would be reduced from a total of 38 ATP to 30 ATP. E. The amount of ATP would be reduced from a total of 38 ATP to 14 ATP.
The citric acid cycle, otherwise called the Krebs cycle or tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, is the second phase of cell breath. This cycle is catalyzed by a few compounds and is named to pay tribute to the British researcher Hans Krebs who recognized the arrangement of steps engaged with the citric acid cycle. The usable vitality found in the starches, proteins, and fats we eat is discharged for the most part through the citric acid cycle. Despite the fact that the citric acid cycle doesn't utilize oxygen legitimately, it works just when oxygen is available.
In eukaryotic cells, the citric acid cycle utilizes one particle of acetyl CoA to produce 1 ATP, 3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 2 CO2, and 3 H+. Since two acetyl CoA particles are created from the two pyruvic acid atoms delivered in glycolysis, the complete number of these atoms yielded in the citric acid cycle is multiplied to 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2, 4 CO2, and 6 H+. Two extra NADH atoms are additionally produced in the transformation of pyruvic acid to acetyl CoA preceding the beginning of the cycle. The NADH and FADH2 atoms delivered in the citric acid cycle are passed along to the last period of cell breath called the electron transport chain. Here NADH and FADH2 experience oxidative phosphorylation to produce more ATP.
Hence, the correct answer is option E " The amount of ATP would be reduced from a total of 38 ATP to 14 ATP"
This means all living organisms must obtain and use energy to live. Energy is the power to do things. ... A living organism can either make its food or depend on others to make food for them. For example, green plants produce their food from a process called photosynthesis.
