1. How many ATP are produced as the NET result in step 1?

2. In step 1, how many molecules that have reducing power are generated?

3. In step 2, how many ATP are produced?

4. In step 3, how many ATP are produced?

5. Assuming in step 4, 2 ATPs are produced from each NADH and 1 ATPs are produced from each FADH2 in ETC. How many ATPs are produced in step 4?

6. In a case that everything else holds the same as the above questions, but after Step 1, one of the pyruvates was transported to another cellular location and consumed for biosynthesis, the other pyruvate continued to be oxidized and completed all of the 4 steps of the aerobic respiration. Then, at the end of Step 4, How many ATPs were generated in total (from step 1-step 4)? Please round the number down to the closest integer."
