Question

Arrange the following steps in the complete oxidation of glucose in the correct order:

1) Glycolysis
2) Pyruvic acid converted to acetyl CoA
3) Hydrogen's are picked up by NAD and FAD
4) Krebs cycle releases CO₂ and hydrogen's
5) Oxygen combines with hydrogen ions and electrons to form water
6) Electrons are transported along electron carriers & energy from the electrons is stored in ATP.

a. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 4
b. 1, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5
c. 1, 2, 4, 3, 5, 6
d. 1, 4, 2, 3, 6, 5
e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

Answer 1

The correct order of steps in the complete oxidation of glucose is glycolysis, pyruvic acid conversion to acetyl CoA, hydrogen pickup by NAD and FAD, Krebs cycle release of CO₂ and hydrogen, oxygen and hydrogen ion combination to form water, and electron transport and ATP production.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct order of steps in the complete oxidation of glucose is:

1. Glycolysis
2. Pyruvic acid converted to acetyl CoA
3. Hydrogens are picked up by NAD and FAD
4. Krebs cycle releases CO₂ and hydrogen's
5. Oxygen combines with hydrogen ions and electrons to form water
6. Electrons are transported along electron carriers & energy from the electrons is stored in ATP

Therefore, the correct answer is option d. 1, 4, 2, 3, 6, 5.

Answer 2

1) Glycolysis

2) Pyruvic acid converted to acetyl CoA

4) Krebs cycle releases CO₂ and hydrogen's

3) Hydrogen's are picked up by NAD and FAD

6) Electrons are transported along electron carriers & energy from the electrons is stored in ATP

5) Oxygen combines with hydrogen ions and electrons to form water

The correct order for the complete oxidation of glucose is:

b. 1, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Glucose is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C6H12O6. It is the most abundant monosaccharide, a subcategory of carbohydrates, and is the primary source of energy for all living organisms.

Glucose is mainly produced by plants and algae during photosynthesis from water and carbon dioxide, using energy from sunlight, and is used to make cellulose in cell walls, the most abundant carbohydrate in the world. In energy metabolism, glucose is the most important source of energy in all organisms, and it is stored as a polymer in plants mainly as starch and amylopectin, and in animals as glycogen.

Glucose circulates in the blood of animals as blood sugar, and its regulation is of great importance in maintaining appropriate blood glucose levels. So, The correct order for the complete oxidation of glucose is:

• b. 1, 2, 4, 3, 6, 5
