Explanation:

From the oxidation of a glucose molecule, at most 38 ATP is produced (generally between 36 and 38 ATP molecules depending on the external conditions that determine the conversion efficiency), distributed as follows: glycolysis produces eight ATP (six come from the oxidation of the two NADH, the other two form directly); the conversion of pyruvic acid into acetyl-CoA produces six ATP (from two NADH); The Krebs cycle produces 24 ATP (18 come from six NADH; four, from two FADH2; the remaining two are formed directly).

40% of the free energy produced in the oxidation of glucose is retained in the form of ATP molecules. In other words, the process has an efficiency of 40%

the electromagnetic spectrum includes, from longest wavelength to shortest: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, optical, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma-rays.

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
