Assertion : Oxidation of one molecule of...

Assertion : Oxidation of one molecule of NADH gives rise to 3 molecules of ATP and that of one molecule of `FADH_(2)` produces 2 molecules of ATP
Reason : The number of ATP molecules synthesised depends on the nature of the electron donor.

A

If both. assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If both assertion and reason are false.

Text Solution

The correct Answer is:
A
(A) Oxidation of one molecule of `FADH_(2)` produces 2 molecules of ATP, while that of one molecule of NADH gives rise to 3 molecules of ATP as number of ATP molecules synthesised depends on the nature of electron donor
