Glycolysis has the potential to produce LOTS of energy very quickly.
|
|
True
|
|
|
False
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Relative to oxidative phosphorylation, which maximizes the energy potential of a single glucose molecule (approximately 32 molecules of ATP per 1 molecule of glucose), glycolysis is an inefficient means of energy production. Glycolysis produces only two net molecules of ATP per 1 molecule of glucose.
Detailed explanation-2: -True or False? Glycolysis releases a great amount of energy. False; glycolysis releases a small amount of energy. Cellular respiration is the process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: a) Glucose contains the most potential energy.
