The stage of cellular respiration producing maximum ATP:
Correct answer: D. Chemiosmosis
- A. Glycolysis
- B. Oxidation of pyruvate
- C. Krebs cycle
- D. Chemiosmosis
Explanation
Chemiosmosis uses the proton gradient created by the electron transport chain to produce the majority of ATP in cellular respiration. Glycolysis and the Krebs cycle produce only small amounts of ATP directly, while chemiosmosis generates the majority.
