Question 3 • First Semester Biology

Choose the statement that correctly identifies the process and location that produces most ATP from ADP during cellular respiration.

Answer
A
glycolysis in cell cytoplasm
B
Calvin cycle in chloroplasts
C
Krebs cycle in mitochondria
D
electron transport in mitochondria

Explanation

Most ATP in cellular respiration is produced by oxidative phosphorylation, which includes the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. The chain creates a proton gradient that drives ATP synthase to convert ADP into ATP. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle make some ATP, but much less; the Calvin cycle is part of photosynthesis.
