How many gross and net molecules of ATP will one get from complete oxidation of a saturated fatty acid that has 18 carbons? Please show all the detailed steps (which step of aerobic respiration) and calculations that you will be doing to arrive at your answer to get full credit. I need to see the energy balance sheet for each step, involved in this oxidation (check the energy balance sheet for glucose in text book to get idea of how to organize your data). Note that you have to give me two separate answers. Read question carefully.
