Identify the INCORRECT statement regarding glycolysis. There is _________.

Options

  1. Aproduction of ATP
  2. Bexpenditure of ATP
  3. Cformation of Pyruvic acid
  4. Dformation of CO2\text{CO}_2

Correct answer

D. formation of CO2\text{CO}_2

Step-by-step solution

Glycolysis is the process of partial oxidation of glucose to form two molecules of pyruvic acid.

During the preparatory phase of glycolysis, two molecules of ATP are consumed.

During the payoff phase, four molecules of ATP are produced, resulting in a net gain of two ATP molecules.

No carbon dioxide is released during glycolysis. Decarboxylation occurs later in the link reaction and Krebs cycle.

Thus, the statement regarding the formation of CO2\text{CO}_2 is incorrect.

Answer: formation of CO2\text{CO}_2
