How many ATPs does 1 FADH releases??

1.	How many ATPs does 1 FADH releases??
Answer» The net gain from one cycle is 3 NADH and 1 FADH2\xa0as hydrogen- (proton plus electron)-carrying compounds and 1 high-energy GTP, which may subsequently be used to produce ATP. Thus, the total yield from 1 glucose molecule (2 pyruvate molecules) is 6 NADH, 2 FADH2, and\xa02 ATP. For every pair of electrons transported to the electron transport chain by a molecule of NADH, between\xa02\xa0and\xa03 ATP\xa0are generated. For each pair of electrons transferred by FADH2, between 1 and\xa02 ATP\xa0are generated.
