Question

Which statements apply to glycolysis?

Answer 1

Glycolysis is a series of reactions that extract energy from glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules called pyruvates. Glycolysis is an ancient metabolic pathway, meaning that it evolved long ago, and it is found in the great majority of organisms alive.

In organisms that perform cellular respiration, glycolysis is the first stage of this process. However, glycolysis doesn’t require oxygen, and many anaerobic organisms—organisms that do not use oxygen—also have this pathway.

Answer 2

Answer:

The process in which we dehydrate the glucose is known as dehydration. It is a metabolic pathway of converting glucose into pyruvate.

Glucose ($C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}$) → Pyruvate ($CH_{3} COCOO^{-}$)

In this process the release of hydrogen is also takes place. In this the change of energy from NADPH2 to ATP is also taking place. In this reaction there are 10 steps of the glycolysis process.

This reaction is also known as enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
