Read the following statements regarding cellular respiration and glycolysis: A. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and is present in all living organisms. B. During glycolysis, ATP is utilised at two steps: conversion of glucose into glucose 6-phosphate and conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate. C. In aerobic organisms, the complete oxidation of pyruvate takes place in the cytop

Options

  1. AA, B, D, E only
  2. BA, C, D, E only
  3. CB, C, D only
  4. DA, B, C, E only

Correct answer

A. A, B, D, E only

Step-by-step solution

Statement A is correct. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and is the only process of respiration in anaerobic organisms, making it present in all living organisms. Statement B is correct. ATP is utilised at two steps in glycolysis: first in the conversion of glucose into glucose 6-phosphate, and second in the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate to fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate. Statement C is incorrect. In aerobic organisms, the complete oxidation of pyruvate takes place in the mitochondria, not in the cyt
