In glycerol 3-phosphate transport, found in muscle and nerve cells, how many ATP molecules are produced for each NADH + H⁺?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In glycerol 3-phosphate transport, for each NADH molecule, one glycerol 3-phosphate molecule is oxidized to dihydroxyacetone phosphate by the glycerol phosphate shuttle. This generates 2 ATP molecules through oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore, the correct answer is 2 (B).
