The glucose oxidation is going to generate 32 to 36 ATP molecules. The oxidative phosphorylation is the part of cellular respiration that produces more ATP. The theoretical yield of ATP is 36 to 38 ATP per glucose via oxidative phosphorylation. While the actual yield is, 30 to 32 ATP.
This is because, during the calculation of theoretical yield, the energy necessary for the transport of ATP into the cytoplasm and out of the mitochondria is not considered. Only the ATP synthesized by oxidative phosphorylation inside the mitochondria is considered.
Thus, the options (a), (c) and (b) are incorrect.

Therefore, the correct option is – d. 32-36.
