How many molecules of pyruvic acid are produced at the end of glycolysis from 206 molecules of glucose ?

Options

  1. A412
  2. B206
  3. C309
  4. D103

Correct answer

A. 412

Step-by-step solution

In glycolysis, one molecule of glucose is broken down to produce two molecules of pyruvic acid. Therefore, the number of pyruvic acid molecules produced from 206 molecules of glucose is 206 2 = 412 . Answer: 412
