In aerobic respiration one glucose produces

A. 8 NADH + 2 FADH₂+ 2 ATP

B. 12NADH + 2 FADH₂+ 38 ATP

C. 12 NADH + 30 ATP +H₂O

D. 10 NADH + 2 FADH₂ + 2 ATP + 2 GTP

Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

In aerobic respiration one glucose produces 10 NADH + 2 FADH₂ + 2 ATP + 2 GTP.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen (O₂) to create ATP. The potential of NADH and FADH₂ is converted to more ATP through an electron transport chain with oxygen and protons as the "terminal electron acceptors".
In aerobic conditions, the process converts one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate (pyruvic acid), generating energy in the form of two net molecules of ATP.
