if each NADH generates 3 ATP molecules and each FADH2 generates 2 ATP molecules, calculate the number of ATP molecules generated from one saturated 10-carbon fatty acid Determine the number of repetitions of the β‑oxidation spiral needed to completely degrade the fatty acid to acetyl-SCoAacetyl-SCoA (acetyl-CoA)(acetyl-CoA) . Calculate the ATPATP produced by the acetyl-SCoAacetyl-SCoA molecules in the citric acid cycle. Calculate the ATPATP produced from the FADH2FADH2 and NADHNADH produced from β‑oxidation. Add the ATPATP generated (from step 2 and 3), and subtract the ATPATP needed to activate the fatty acid.

if each NADH generates 3 ATP molecules and each FADH2 generates 2 ATP molecules, calculate the number of ATP molecules generated from one saturated 10-carbon fatty acid
  1. Determine the number of repetitions of the β‑oxidation spiral needed to completely degrade the fatty acid to acetyl-SCoAacetyl-SCoA (acetyl-CoA)(acetyl-CoA) .
  2. Calculate the ATPATP produced by the acetyl-SCoAacetyl-SCoA molecules in the citric acid cycle.
  3. Calculate the ATPATP produced from the FADH2FADH2 and NADHNADH produced from β‑oxidation.
  4. Add the ATPATP generated (from step 2 and 3), and subtract the ATPATP needed to activate the fatty acid.
