Read the following statements and choose the correct option: 1. In plants, the glucose is derived from fructose, which is the end product of photosynthesis, or from storage carbohydrates. 2. Glucose is converted into sucrose and fructose by the enzyme, invertase, and these two monosaccharides readily enter the glycolytic pathway. 3. In glycolysis, a chain of ten reactions, under the control of different enzymes, take

Step-by-step solution

In plants, the glucose is derived from fructose, which is the end product of photosynthesis, or from storage carbohydrates. Sucrose is converted into glucose and fructose by the enzyme, invertase, and these two monosaccharides readily enter the glycolytic pathway. Glucose and fructose are phosphorylated to give rise to glucose-6-phosphate by the activity of the enzyme hexokinase.,In the remaining steps of citric acid cycle, succinyl-CoA is oxidised to OAA allowing the cycle to continue. During the conversion of suc
