Answer:
a. retained in the pyruvate
Explanation:
Glycolysis is a cytoplasmic pathway that converts glucose into two pyruvate, releasing a modest amount of energy captured in two substrate-level phosphorylations and one oxidation reaction.
Following are the important enzymes in it :
- Hexokinase
- Phosphofructokinase
- Pyruvate kinase
Aerobic glycolysis yields 2ATP/glucose plus 2NADH/glucose but most of the energy is retained in pyruvate which is then converted into Acetyl-CoA and enters the kreb's cycle.
