Question

16. Given below is the chemical equation for a certain
process:
glycolysis
C6H12O6
→ Pyruvate
no O2 required
in cytoplasm
→ C2H5OH + 2C02 + Energy
no O2 required
(a) Name the process.
(b) Where does this process occur?
(c) What will happen if pyruvate gets oxygen
for chemical reaction? Write the resultant
compounds and chemical equation.

please answer only part c it's urgent guys​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA and then enters the citric acid cycle. More ATP can be formed from the breakdown of glucose when oxygen is present.

I know this much ans

Answer 2

Answer:

this process occurs in our body it is done in cellular level.

it will produce 38ATP

pyruvate + O2 = CO2 + H2O + 38ATP
