​

Answer 1

Answer:

false because it is an anaerobic exercise.

Answer 2

$\LARGE{ \underline{\underline{ \sf{Required \: answer:}}}}$

The above statement is False because Glycolysis is an oxygen-independent process which is common to both aerobic & anaerobic processes.

Let's know more about the above process:

• Respiration can take place in any of the two processes: Aerobic or Anaerobic.

• In both, Glycolysis is the first process in which one glucose molecule is broken down to form two molecules of Pyruvic acid (or pyruvate).

• It is a multistep process which takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. A small amount of energy of 2 ATP is also released.

In aerobic respiration, the next step is Kreb's cycle:

• After the completion of the above process, pyruvate enters the mitochondria which contains various enzymes.

• The enzymes act upon them and all the necessary reactions takes place.

• The cycle was discovered by Hans Kreb for which he also won Nobel Prize in 1953.
