Phenylketonuria causes a severe cognitive disability due to the inability to metabolize phenylalanine. It is an autosomal recess

ive disorder. About one in 12,000 newborns in Massachusetts are afflicted with the disease, skewed higher than the general US population due to more Irish-Americans. Assuming the gene is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of the carriers (heterozygotes) in Massachusetts would be calculated to be...

How many atp are made in the electron transport part of cellular respiration
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

34

Explanation:

The electron transport chain of cellular respiration includes oxidation of NADH and FADH2. The electrons from these reducing powers are passed to the terminal electron acceptor via electron transport chain. During the transfer of electron via electron transport chain, the generated electrochemical gradient drives ATP synthesis.

The net yield of NADH from glycolysis and Kreb's cycle is 2 and 6 per glucose molecule respectively. In addition, decarboxylation of pyruvate also obtains 2 NADH per glucose. Kreb's cycle forms 2 FADH2 molecules during reduction reactions. In total, 10 NADH and 2 FADH2 are formed which then enter the electron transport chain and drive ATP synthesis.

One molecule of NADH generates the electrochemical gradient enough to drive the synthesis of 3 molecules of ATP while each FADH2 obtains 2 ATP molecules. Therefore, total 10 x 3 = 30 ATP molecules from oxidation of NADH and 2 x 2 = 4 ATP from oxidation of FADH2 are obtained.
