Question

Total ATP production during EMP pathway is ______.

Options

• 24 ATP molecules

• 8 ATP molecules.

• 38 ATP molecules

• 6 ATP molecules

Answer 1

Total ATP production during EMP pathway is 8 ATP molecules.

Explanation:

Glycolysis, in which one molecule of glucose is converted into two molecules of pyruvic acid, is referred to as the EMP (Embden-Meyerhof Paranas Pathway). In this procedure, 2NADH (23 ATP) and 2 ATP are gained, making a total of 8 ATP.
