A) 9ATP and 36 NADPH are required
B) 6 ATP and 6 NADPH are required
C) 3 ATP and 3 NADPH are required
D) 9 ATP and 6 NADPH are required
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
Three molecules of \[{{O}_{2}}\]must be fixed to generate one molecule of glyceraldehydes 3-phosphate (three carbon molecules), three ATP and two NADPH are required for each \[C{{O}_{2}}\] to be converted to glyceraldehydes 3-phosphate. \[3C{{O}_{2}}+6NADPH+9ATP\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\] Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate \[+\text{ }6NAD{{P}^{+}}+9ADP+8Pi\]
