The energized glucose splits apart, creating 2 ____
|
PGAL
|
|
Pyruvate
|
|
NAD
|
|
FAD
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Respiration of 1 molecule of glucose or 2 PGAL produces 38 ATP molecules, therefore 3 molecule of glucose, will produce 6 PGAL and 38×3=114 ATP molecules.
Detailed explanation-2: -Simply put, glycolysis (glyco = sugar; lysis = splitting) 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-3: -What is glycolysis? Glycolysis is a series of reactions that extract energy from glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules called pyruvates.
