  1. Question 1

    Q1. During glycolysis, two molecules of NADH are produced in the cytosol. How many net ATP molecules are typically generated from these specifically via ETC?

    • A) 4 ATP
    • B) 6 ATP
    • C) 2 ATP
    • D) 38 ATP

    Answer: 4 ATP

    Explanation: NADH from the cytosol is usually oxidized via shuttles, yielding 2 ATP each in some tissues. 3 ATP is wrong for cytosolic NADH.
