Assuming a total of 360 molecules of ATP were generated after the NADH and FADH2 were subjected to oxidative phosphorylation, how many molecules of each (NADH and FADH2) moved to the cristae of the mitochondria respectively?

Question

Accepted Answer

***A*** ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ATP yield from NADH and FADH2⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹During oxidative phosphorylation, each NADH molecule yields approximately 2.5 ATP, and each FADH2 yields approximately 1.5 ATP. To calculate the number of NADH and FADH2 molecules, we can set up a system of equations based on their ATP yields and solve for the number of each molecule.⚹◊What is the importance of NADH and FADH2 in the process of oxidative phosphorylation⍭ Generate me a similar question◊
