Cellular respiration atp

Question

All of the energy stored in the molecule of glucose that first enters glycolysis is eventually

converted into ATP, and consequentially the same amount of ATP is synthesized during

each cycle of cellular respiration.

a. True

b. False

Answer 1

This is partially true...but overall false. Some of the energy from glucose is lost as heat! However, it is true that in each cycle of cellular respiration 38 total ATP are produced.
