Answer: Pentose phosphate pathway produces ribose-5-phosphate sugars that are used in the production of DNA and RNA molecules.
Explanation: Pentose phosphate pathway takes place in the cytosol like glycolysis, with its end products being ribose-5-phosphate sugars and NADH used in production of RNA and DNA.
Difference between these pathways are that the pentose phosphate is anabolic. It uses alot of energy, NADPH and ATP for building. Unlike glycolysis its primary function is not energy production, which on the other hand glycolysis is catabolic, primarily leading to the the production of energy.

Answer:
Only active transport requires ATP
Explanation:
Passive transport is the movement of molecules across the cell membrane without the need for energy. These substances usually move from a high concentration to a low concentration.
Active transport relies on energy from ATP to move substances across the plasma membrane. This is usually required when moving substances against their concentration gradient.
