What do you call the breaking down of glucose?
glycolysis. (:
Is glucose not a product of glycolysis?
Glucose serves as the starting compound for glycolysis and is consumed in the reaction.
Which is the committed step of glycolysis?
The committed step of glycolysis is the reaction catalyzed by phophofructokine (PFK) converting fructose-6-phosphate into fructose-1,6- bisphosphate. The reaction is irreversible and secondly, it's the only reaction peculiar to the glycolysis.
The enzyme enolase catalyzes the ninth reaction of glycolysis. What is the product of this reaction?
Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)
Does an anabolic reaction break down glucose?
Yes during glycolysis

What reaction is the Synthesis of pyruvate from glycogen?
Glycolysis.
Which of these enzymes catalyzes the first reaction in glycolysis?
Hexokinase
The enzyme enolase catalyzes the ninth reaction of glycolysis. What is the product of this reaction?
Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)
Which of the following is correct regarding glycolysis?
The "committed" reaction is also the rate-limiting reaction
What type of reaction by which proteins and carbohydrates are broken down?
Glycolysis.
Does an anabolic reaction break down glucose?
Yes during glycolysis
NADH is produced during?
light reaction in photosynthesis in Plants
Glycolysis produces a net gain of what ATP molecules for each reaction?
Glycolysis produces a net gain of 2 ATP molecules for each reaction
Why might adding inorganic phosphate to a reaction mixture where glycolysis is rapidly proceeding help sustain the metabolic pathway?
The metabolic intermediates of glycolysis are phosphorylated.
