During the complete metabolism of glucose, which of the following is accurate?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the complete metabolism of glucose, more ATP is produced via reduced coenzymes such as NADH and FADH2 than directly as ATP. In glycolysis, only a net of 2 ATP molecules are produced per molecule of glucose, while the citric acid cycle produces only 2 ATP molecules per cycle. The pyruvate ion is not the ultimate form of carbon atoms, as they are eventually released as carbon dioxide during the citric acid cycle. Therefore, option D is the most accurate statement.
