Answer:
Explanation:
Glycolytic pathway is a multi-enzyme pathway (involving ten reactions) showing the breakdown of glucose to form pyruvate.
The pathway is divided into two phases; energy requiring and energy yielding phase. In the energy requiring phase, ATP is used and converted to ADP while in the energy yielding ATP is produced from ADP.
The question asks about the energy requiring phase and the enzymes involved, which are
c. Hexokinase catalyzes the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. Here, one phosphate group from ATP is attached to glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate and ADP is released in the process
d. Phosphofructokinase catalyzes the conversion of fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.
Here, one phosphate group from ATP is attached to frutose-6-phosphate to form fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and ADP is released in the process.
