Question

Different form in which glucose is oxidised to provide energy

Answer 1

Answer:

The two different ways in which glucose is oxidized to provide energy in various organisms are as follows: First set of breakdown of glucose (six carbon molecules) takes place in the cytoplasm of cells of all organisms. This process yields a three carbon molecule compound called pyruvate.

Answer 2

Answer:glucose can be oxidised in 3 ways:-

1) glucose --> pyruvate -->ethanol +CO2+ energy ( absence of oxygen)

2)Glucose -->pyruvate--> lactic acid +energy (lack of oxygen)

3) glucose -->pyruvate--> co2+ h2o + energy
