Question 6 • Biology

What is the main transformation that occurs during glycolysis?

Answer
A
Glycolysis produces pyruvate, ATP, and NADH by oxidizing glucose.
B
Glycolysis produces ATP and pyruvate by oxidizing glucose and NAD raised to the plus power .
C
Glycolysis produces CO sub 2 , ATP, and pyruvate by reducing glucose.
D
Glycolysis produces ATP and pyruvate by oxidizing water.

Explanation

During glycolysis, one glucose molecule is broken down into pyruvate. As glucose is oxidized, NAD+ is reduced to NADH, and the pathway also produces ATP. Therefore, the choice describing production of pyruvate, ATP, and NADH by oxidizing glucose is correct.
