1. Given that one mole of glucose is oxidized to produce 36 moles of ATP from ADP.
a. How much energy is required to synthesize 36 moles of ATP from 36 moles of ADP?
b. How much energy is "left over" when the energy from oxidizing one mole of glucose is used to synthesize 36 moles of ATP? What percentage of the total energy is used to convert ADP into ATP? Would you consider this a very "efficient" process? What happens to the "left over" energy?
