Calculate the total number of ATP molecules produced if fructose-1,6- bisphosphate  is used as a substrate for aerobic respiration.

a
38 ATP
b
40 ATP
c
44 ATP
d
20 ATP

detailed solution

Correct option is B

As fructose-1,6- bisphosphate is used as a substrate therefore the energy consuming phase of glycolysis is not required. Therefore, the total number of ATP produced= 38ATP+2 ATP= 40 ATP.
