Question
How many water molecules are produced in mitochondria with the help of ETS during complete oxidation of one pyruvic acid ?
Options
A.Six
B.Six
C.Two
D.Five
Solution
Due to the 2H of each NADH2 or FADH2, one water molecule produced in the ETS.
One pyruvic acid = 4 NADH2 and 1 FADH2 so 5 H2O produced.
