Question

Which of the following is a result of glycolysis?

a.a net loss of two ATPs per glucose molecule
b.conversion of NADH to NAD*
c.production of CO₂
d.conversion of glucose to two three-carbon compounds

Answer 1

Glycolysis results in a net gain of two ATP molecules and produces two molecules of NADH.

Step-by-step explanation:

Glycolysis is the process in which glucose is broken down into two pyruvate molecules. During glycolysis, there is a net gain of two ATP molecules. Two ATP molecules are used in the first stage of glycolysis, resulting in a net gain of two ATP. Additionally, glycolysis produces two molecules of NADH.
