In the presence of arsenate poisoning glycolysis is interrupted. ATP production proceeds via a reaction that involves 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate. a net production of 2 molecules of ATP occurs. All of the above None of the above

Answer:

glycolysis is interrupted.

Step-by-step explanation:

The presence of arsenate can poison the process that inhibits ATP production which occurs during the process of glycolysis. Arsenate inhibits ATP formation during the process of glycolysis by substituting arsenate for the phosphate anion in a process known as arsenolysis. Arsenic has to inhibits cellular respiration by inducing mitochondrial enzymes and uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation.
