What is the net gain of ATP when each molecule of glucose is converted to two molecules of pyruvic acid?

  1. Four
  2. Six
  3. Two
  4. Eight

Answer

(3) Two

Solution

Glycolysis: glucose → 2 pyruvic acid.

ATP used: 2 (glucose → glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate → fructose-1,6-bisphosphate).

ATP formed directly: 4 (2 from 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate → 3-phosphoglycerate, 2 from PEP → pyruvic acid).

∴ Net gain = 4 - 2 = 2 ATP.
