Which specific stage of aerobic respiration is anomalous because it produces reduced coenzymes and CO2 but zero ATP?
Q1. Which specific stage of aerobic respiration is anomalous because it produces reduced coenzymes and CO2 but zero ATP?
Answer: Pyruvate oxidation
Explanation: Pyruvate oxidation produces NADH and CO2 but no ATP. Glycolysis is tempting because it is the preceding step that does produce ATP.
