Plants and some bacteria, however, can convert acetyl CoA into glucose.  Please briefly describe how acetyl CoA is converted into glucose (3 points). 1c. How many NET Acetyl CoA, NET ATP, and NET NADH are needed in order to synthesize ONE molecule of glucose from acetyl CoA in plants (3 points)? Count GTP as ATP if GTP is used or produced and count FADH2 as NADH if FADH2 is used or produced in the
