Question

The ratio that approximates the number of net molecule of ATP formed per mole of Glucose oxidized in presence of O2 to the net number formed in absence of O2 is

Answer 1

The ratio that approximates the number of net molecule of ATP formed per mole of Glucose oxidized in presence of O2 to the net number formed in absence of O2 is 19 : 1

Explanation:

The number of ATP formed per mole of glucose during aerobic respiration is 38.

while during an aerobic respiration 2 molecules of ATP are formed.

Thus the ratio is,

38 : 2

19 : 1

Answer 2

38:2

= 19:1
