Question #214307

  1. Explain why it is not possible to state an exact number of ATP molecules generated by the oxidation of glucose.

Expert's answer

Phosphorylation and the redox reactions are not directly coupled to each other, so the ratio of number of NADH to number of ATP is not a whole number.
