(a)

Summary Introduction

To complete: The given tablefor aerobic bacterium and find the maximum ATP yield.

Introduction: The aerobic respiration involves the oxidation of glucose in the presence of oxygen to yield energy. There are several pathways involved in the complete oxidation of the glucose. The number of pathways like glycolysis, TCA cycle, and electron transport chain finally results in the release of energy and the synthesis of the ATP in the mitochondria.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To indicate: The changes for the calculation of the maximum ATP yield when a cell uses glycerol phosphate shuttle to move the electrons from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix.

Introduction: The number of pathways like glycolysis, TCA cycle, and electron transport chain finally results in the release of energy and the synthesis of the ATP in the mitochondria. The other shuttles are also involved in the process to make the whole process most economically favorable.
