Determine the number of atp molecules

Reference no: EM1396558

You are studying the oxidative phosphorylation process in the liver cells of a newly discovered species and have observed the following. The transfer of electrons from one molecule of NADH to H2O via the electron transfer chain results in the net movements of 8 protons from the mitochondrial matrix into the intermembrane mitochondrial space. The c-ring of the Fo portion of its ATPase pump has 12 c subunits. Assuming that the rest of the oxidative pathway of this new species functions the same as ours, determine the number of ATP molecules that can be produced by this unusual oxidative phosphorylation pathway from 2 NADH molecules. Enter your value using 2 decimal points.
