Question:medium

In cytosol, the product yield from the oxidation of one molecule of glucose is:

Show Hint

Glycolysis produces 2 pyruvate, 2 NADH, and a net gain of 2 ATP per glucose molecule.
Updated On: Feb 11, 2026
  • 2 pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 ATP
  • 2 pyruvate + 1 NADH + 2 ATP
  • 1 pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 ATP
  • 1 pyruvate + 1 NADH + 2 ATP
Show Solution

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

In glycolysis, one glucose molecule undergoes breakdown in the cytosol, yielding two pyruvate molecules. This process generates a net 2 ATP and 2 NADH.
