Solution
The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion The conversion of 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPGA) to 3- phosphoglyceric
acid (PGA) is an energy yielding step. One of the two phosphate s of
bisphoglycerate in linked by high energy bond. It can synthesise ATP and
form 3- phosphoglycerate. The enzyme is phosphoglycerate kinase. The
direct synthesis of ATP from metabolities is called substrate level
phosphorylation.3-phospholycerate
