Question

What is the similarity between glycolysis and Krebs cycle?

• A. Formation of intermediate $5C$compound
• B. Substrate level phosphorylation
• C. Oxidative phosphorylation
• D. Decarboxylation.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Substrate level phosphorylation

Answer is option B i.e. "Substrate level phosphorylation"
Substrate-level phosphorylation is a metabolic reaction that results in the formation of ATP by the direct transfer of a phosphoryl (PO3) group to ADP from another phosphorylated compound. Substrate level phosphorylation occurs in glycolysis and Krebs cycle.
While decarboxylation, formation of intermediate 5C compound and oxidative phosphorylation occurs only in Kreb's cycle.
