Solution

The correct option is B PGAL --> PGA
This reaction takes place during glycolysis that involves a breakdown of glucose the reduction of NAD takes place and it forms in NADH+ H⁺.
This occurs when 1,3- phosphoglyceraldehyde is converted into 13-phosphoglyceric acid. The enzyme used here is triose phosphate dehydrogenase.
So, the correct option is 'PGAL --> PGA.'
