Detailed explanation-1: -Glycolysis is also known as E.M.P. pathway which stands for Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas Pathway, which was discovered by Gustav Embden, Otto Meyerhof, and Jakub Karol Parnas. Glycolysis splits a 6-carbon sugar, glucose, into two molecules of 3-carbon pyruvate in a series of steps, each catalyzed by a particular enzyme.
Detailed explanation-2: -The correct option is B EMP Pathway. The scheme of glycolysis was given by Embden, Meyerhof and Parnas. Hence it is also known as the EMP pathway.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the Embden–Meyerhof pathway, there are two main stages. The first one is the conversion of the sugar to a common intermediate, which is glucose-6-phosphate followed by the second stage including the conversion of the intermediate into pyruvate.
