To discuss:
The net ATP yield of glycolysis and aerobic respiration, the amount of ATP produced at each step from glucose to H2O, and why the yield varies slightly between different cell types.
Introduction:
Mitochondria have two membranes: one is the outer mitochondrial membrane and the other is the inner mitochondrial membrane. Between these two membranes, there is a mitochondrial membrane space. Mitochondrial matrix is present inside the mitochondria. NADH and FADH2 are synthesized in the cytoplasm and the mitochondrial matrix through glycolysis and Krebs cycle. The high energy compounds enter the inner mitochondrial membrane, transport the electrons in the electron transport chain, produce H2O from oxygen, and produce ATP molecules by the four enzyme complexes.
