Which of the following is true regarding glycolysis ?
Choose 1 answer.
A.) It requires glucose as a reactant.
B.) It produces 36 ATP.
C.) It occurs in the mitochondria.
D.) It is an aerobic process. ​

Respuesta :

Answer:

I would have to say A

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the first step in the breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism. So we already know that it uses glucose because thats what its breaking down. Glycosis produces 2 ATP so B is wrong. Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm so C is wrong. Finnaly aerobic is using free oxygen in the process of the reaction. However glycolysis uses no oxygen and is  anaerobic.

Glycolysis requires glucose as a reactant.  

Glycolysis refers to a cytoplasmic pathway that dissociates glucose into the three-carbon compound and produces energy in the form of ATP.  

• The process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm.  

• In the process, the net production of 2 ATPs takes place.  

• It can be both anaerobic and aerobic process.  

• The process of glycolysis completes in 10 steps, five of which are in the preparatory phase and the rest 5 are in the pay-off phase.  

• The process of glycolysis is used by all the cells of the body to produce energy, and the final product of glycolysis is pyruvate.  

Thus, correct answer is option A, that is, it requires glucose as a reactant.
