Answer:

The correct answer will be more ATP is produced than is used.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is a metaboilc process which converts the glucose (6C) molecule to form 2 molecules of pyruvic acid (3C) molecules, 2 ATP and 2 NADH.

Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration which takes place in the cytosol of the cell. This process involves many intermediate reaction which are phosphorylation, lysis, oxidation and ATP formation .

1. During ATP investment phase or phosphorylation, glucose is phosphorylated to form glucose bis-phosphate utilizing 2 molecules of ATP.

2.During ATP formation, the energy released from the sugar intermediates ( 1,3-phosphogylecrate and phosphoenol pyrauvate) is used to synthesise ATP via a process called substrate level phosphorylation producing total of 4 ATP.

2 ATP are used while 4 ATP are produced in glycolysis process shows that more ATP is produced than is used.

Hence, more ATP is produced than is used is the correct answer.

Answer:

I believe the answer is B.

Explanation:

It's not A, C and I don't think it's D.

As the Earth rotates, your region of Earth passes through both of these bulges each day. <u>When you're in one of the bulges, you experience a high tide. When you're not in one of the bulges, you experience a low tide.</u> This cycle of two high tides and two low tides occurs most days on most of the coastlines of the world.
