Please refer the solution below for the said query
The correct option is (d).
The two steps resulting in a net increase of ATP are:
- The conversion of Triose phosphate into Pyruvate yields 2 ATPs and 1 NADH + H+. One NADH = 3 ATPs. Hence, total 5 ATPS are produced.
- The conversion of 6C (citric acid) into H2O and CO2. is called Kreb's cycle It yields about 12 ATPs.
Hope this information clears your doubt about the topic.
