Lesson 6: Cellular Respiration

Question 8 • 41111de1 ECAD Fall 2026 - Q2 - NM-Biology - S1

What is the overall net gain of ATP in aerobic respiration per one molecule of glucose?

Answer
A
between 0-10
B
between 10-20
C
between 30-40
D
between 40-50

Explanation

Aerobic respiration produces about 30–32 ATP net from one molecule of glucose in eukaryotic cells, though estimates can vary with the accounting method. That total falls between 30 and 40, so the correct choice is “between 30-40.”
