The net (final) ATP production from anaerobic glycolysis is ____.
A) 2 ATPs if beginning with glycogen
B) 3 ATPs if beginning with glucose
C) 3 ATPs if beginning with glycogen
D) 38 ATPs if beginning with glucose

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anaerobic glycolysis produces a net gain of 2 ATPs from glucose and 3 ATPs from glycogen because glycogen breakdown bypasses the initial ATP-consuming step.
