Electrons from NADH accepted by oxygen form how many ATPs?
Correct answer: B. 3
- A. 1
- B. 3
- C. 4
- D. 2
Explanation
In the electron transport chain, each NADH donates electrons that ultimately reduce oxygen to water. During this process, enough energy is released to produce approximately 3 molecules of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
