2
How many NADH are produced by glycolysis?

In glycolysis, what starts the process of glucose breakdown?
ATP
During chemiosmosis,
ATP is synthesized when H+ ions move through a channel in ATP synthase.
Imagine an organism with mutations in complexes I, III, and IV that prevent pumping of hydrogen ions into the intermembrane space but still allow electrons to pass through the electron transport chain. Which of the following is the most likely consequence of these mutations?
ATP synthase will not convert ADP to ATP
