Question

Which one is correct for glycolysis:-

• A. Glucose is completely oxidozed
• B. Glucose is partially oxidozed
• C. It provide eight ATP during anerobic respiration
• D. Its key product is triose sugar

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

The correct options are
B Glucose is partially oxidozed
D Its key product is triose sugar

• In glycolysis one molecule of sugar is partially oxidised into two molecule of triose sugar pyruvate producing net two molecules of ATP, two molecules of NADPH and two molecules of water.
  
• In anaerobic organisms glycolysis is known as fermentation and only 2 ATP molecules are produced.
  

So, the correct option is 'Glucose is partially oxidised' and 'It's key product is triose sugar'.
