📌 Bioenergetics questions commonly test pathway location, inputs and outputs, and ATP or electron-carrier counts together.
📌 The figures 36 or 38 ATP per glucose are theoretical maximum values, whereas the realistic yield is approximately 30–32 ATP because efficiency and NADH transport costs vary.
Location → inputs and outputs → ATP or carrier count
1. Regarding the Bioenergetics Exam Framework, which statements are correct?
2. A student reports both 38 ATP and approximately 30–32 ATP per glucose. Which statements correctly interpret these values?
3. Concerning the locations of major energy-producing pathways, select the correct statements:
What do bioenergetics questions commonly test together?
Pathway location, inputs and outputs, and ATP or electron-carrier counts.
What are the theoretical maximum ATP yields per glucose?
36 or 38 ATP per glucose.
Why is the realistic ATP yield per glucose lower than theoretical values?
Because efficiency and NADH transport costs vary.
Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?
In the cytoplasm.
Where does the Krebs cycle occur?
In the mitochondrial matrix.
Where does the respiratory electron transport chain occur?
Across the inner mitochondrial membrane.
