The synthesis of ATP as a result of the electron transport system is dependent on the delivery of electrons and hydrogen ions by NADH and FADH₂ to the inner membrane of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells or the cell membrane of prokaryotic cells.For each of the situations below,give the maximum number of ATP generated.
a.one molecule of FADH₂ produced during the TCA cycle
b.one molecule of NADH produced during the TCA cycle
c.one molecule of NADH produced by glycolysis in a muscle cell that has a very low cytoplasmic level of NADH
d.one molecule of NADH produced by glycolysis in a liver cell using the malate-aspartate shuttle
e.one molecule of FADH2 produced during the TCA cycle in a prokaryotic cell
