Which of the Following Statements is True for ATP Stoichiometry

Question

Which of the following statements is true for ATP stoichiometry in metabolic pathways?
A) It is a consequence of evolution, only.
B) A singular number is not required, only.
C) It results from biological adaptation, only.
D) It cannot be predicted from any chemical considerations, only.
E) All are true

Accepted Answer

All the statements reflect aspects of ATP stoichiometry in metabolic pathways. It is influenced by evolution and biological adaptation, does not require a singular number due to the complexity and variability of metabolic processes, and cannot be solely predicted by chemical considerations because biological systems have evolved specific mechanisms and efficiencies.
