Why it matters: The sources give two different numbers.

How much ATP one glucose makes

Older books say 36 to 38 ATP per glucose. Newer ones say about 30 to 32, because some energy is lost along the way. Ask which number your class uses.

Evidence: How much ATP one glucose makes

“Older textbooks often listed a maximum of 36 to 38 ATP per glucose.”
Textbook, page 148
“Your instructor may use either number, so check your course materials.”

Quotes are copied word for word from the sample’s sources.

SOURCES DISAGREE

The notes ask “36? 38? 30?”. Both numbers appear in the sources, so the guide shows both.
