B) 4%
C) 10%

25% of C6H12O6 TRANSFER THE STORAGE IN ATP

zeinab0: Is this is a basic info to memorize or there is a way to calculate it ?

karunakarchadaram: Thanks for. your like. IT is a basic Info about it that all

zeinab0: okay, actually i reviewed AP exam and the answer is due to the following: total energy in the process of oxidation=686 kcal/mole and the amount of energy of ATP = 7.3 kcap, the amount of ATP produced during oxidation of one glucose= 7.3*38=277.4 k cap. so the percentage equal 277.4/686 = .40 which is 40%.

karunakarchadaram: it changes from persentage of glucose

karunakarchadaram: or its presence
