Substrate level phosphorylation accounts for approximately what percentage of the ATP formed by the reactions of glycolysis ?A.0%B.2%C.10%D.100%
Answers
The correct answer is option D, that is, 100%.
The substrate level phosphorylation refers to a metabolic reaction, which leads to the production of GTP or ATP by the direct transfer of PO3 (phosphoryl) group to GDP or ADP from another phosphorylated compound. In glycolysis, the formation of ATP takes place entirely by the process of substrate level phosphorylation.
100% is the correct answer.
The substrate level phosphorylation refers to the changes in metabolic reaction for accessing with production level.
Based on the GTP or ATP, it is changing with direct transfer and made according to the GDP group.
This is however taking place in other phosphorylated compounds.
In glycolysis, the formation has been carried by ATP and takes place entire solutions for substrate level.
