Question

Which of the following is incorrect about glycolysis?

• A. Glycolysis converts a single molecule into two molecules of pyruvate.
• B. Glycolysis can produce a net total of 2 ATP for each glucose.
• C. The end product of glycolysis can form ethanol, lactate, or acetyl CoA.
• D. During glycolysis $FAD{H}_2$ is produced.
• E. During glycolysis, NADH is produced.

Answer 1

The correct option is D During glycolysis $FAD{H}_2$ is produced.

• Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate. During glycolysis process, 2 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules are produced.

• $FAD{H}_2$ is not produced during glycolysis. It is produced during Krebs cycle. Hence, Option D is correct.
