Substrate-level phosphorylation accounts for approximately what percentage of the atp formed by the reactions of glycolysis?

Respuesta :

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

All of the ATP produced by glycolysis, is made by substrate-level phosphorylation.

In the cycle of Krebs some ATP is also produced by substrate-level phosphorylation, but the vast ATP amount produced by respiration is reached by oxidative phosphorylation when electrons, originally in glucose, are conserved as reducing power in molecules like NADH and FADH2, that are subsequently transferred to an electron transport chain (in mitochondria or present in the membrane of prokaryotes; also present in thylakoid membranes from photosynthetic organisms)

100% of the ATP formed by the reactions of glycolysis.

What is glycolysis?

Glucose is a process of metabolism which converts glucose into pyruvic acid.

This process released free energy which help in formation of ATP and less the mount of NADH.

This process completes in ten sequences which are catalyzed by enzyme.

It is an anaerobic process which does not require oxygen.

Thus, the percentage of ATP formed is 100%.
