GLYCOLYSIS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is not an input of glycolysis?
A
Glucose
B
ATP
C
NAD+
D
CO2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are no oxidation or reduction reactions in glycolysis to produce CO2. There is very little ATP produced in glycolysis. The initial steps of glycolysis require an input of energy in the form of ATP (two per glucose).

Detailed explanation-2: -Understanding Glycolysis : Example Question #3 Carbon dioxide is not produced during glycolysis. Remember in glycolysis one glucose molecule yields 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, and 2 NADH. Heat is also given off in form of energy as we went over before. Carbon dioxide is involved in other processes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Not Input or Output: Pyruvate, Glucose, Acetyl CoA, Coenzyme A and CO₂. Each of the four stages of cellular respiration occurs in a specific location inside or outside the mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answers: 1. Cellular respiration: inputs – glucose, oxygen. Outputs – carbon dioxide, energy, water. Photosynthesis: inputs – light energy, carbon dioxide, water.

Detailed explanation-5: -The input involved in glycolysis is two ATP (Adenosine triphosphate), two NAD+ and one glucose.
