Four molecules of ‘last electron acceptor’ in ETS are required if one ‘molecule of isocitrate’ is a substrate during ‘aerobic respiration’.

Option: (3)

Explanation:  

  • Electron transport system is the final step of release of the ATP from the FAdh2 and NaDPH and these results in the formation of three and two ATP molecules respectively.  
  • These electron acceptor in electron transport system is molecular oxygen. This accepts electron and gets reduced to form water.  
  • Now for every molecule of isocitrate, there is 4 rounds of electron transport system should go on. As a result four molecules of oxygen is required.
