Question

8. In the glycolytic system,
carbohydrates are breakdown into.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The glycolytic system, sometimes called anaerobic glycolysis, is a series of ten enzyme-controlled reactions that utilize carbohydrates to produce ATP and pyruvate as end products. Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose. Technically, glycolysis can use glucose or glycogen in its chemical reactions.

Answer 2

Carbohydrates are broken down into pyruvic acid.

1. Glycolytic system or glycolysis is the anaerobic process for break down glucose for derivation of energy.
2. The process requires 2 ATP and produces four ATP, thus resulting in net production of 2 ATP.
3. Further the product of glycolysis is utilised in energy production by participating in Kreb's cycle.
4. Again NADPH and FADH2 produced in Kreb's cycle are utilised for energy production through oxidative phosphorylation.
