    One turn of Krebs' cycle for the oxidation of 1 mole of sucrose produce. How many ATP molecules.                                        

    A)  12         

    B)  24   

    C)  22                                         

    D)  11

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Whether it is glucose/sucrose, one turn of Krebs' cycle produces 12 ATP. In sucrose, there will be in all four turns of Krebs' cycle instead of two as in case of glucose and, therefore total ATP production will be two times more than glucose, i.e., 48 ATP.
