Why are two phosphate groups added to glucose in stage one of glycolysis? A) To destabilize the intermediates in stage one, making the stage two reactions more favorable. B) To provide all of the phosphate for ATP synthesis during stage two. C) To increase the net ATP produced from one glucose molecule. D) To activate the enzymes in stage two.

In glycolysis, a glucose-phosphate is transformed into a fructose-phosphate. Which of the following reasons provides the best chemical rationale for this transformation? Choose the best answer. A. It is not possible to break a molecule of glucose into two pieces but it is possible to break a molecule of fructose into two pieces. B. Glucose is not a high phosphotransfer potential molecule but fructose is a high phosphotransfer potential molecule. C. There are no enzymes to add phosphate groups to...

Explain, using electron-pushing arguments, why glycolysis must go through the Glucose 6-Phosphate to Fructose 6-Phosphate step (i.e. a C1 aldehyde to a C2 ketone). Focus on the subsequent aldolase-catalysed reaction and explain why Glucose 1,6 bisphosphate would not be able to go through the aldolase reaction.

is it a phosphate system, slow glycolysis, fast glycolysis, beta oxidation, or transamination/deamination? 1. protein will be used as fuel is depleted of fuel 2. can be enhancing by eating more red meat. 3. recovered in 60 min. 4. 1 atp per one substrate used 5. results in co2 and h20 6. complete depletion of carbs 7. predominant system for long distance endurance between 60 to 70% 8. clear lactate fast than it is produced 9.predominant system for long distance...
