In glycolysis, during oxidation electrons are removed by:

In glycolysis, during oxidation electrons are removed by:

Options

  1. AATP
  2. Bglyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
  3. CNAD+\mathrm{NAD}^{+}
  4. Dmolecular oxygen.

Correct answer

C. NAD+\mathrm{NAD}^{+}

Step-by-step solution

When 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde is converted into 1,3 diphosphoglyceric acid, two electrons and two protons are released which are utilised to convert NAD+\mathrm{NAD}^{+}to NADH\mathrm{NADH}. NAD++\mathrm{NAD}^{+}+2 \mathrm{H}^{+}+2 \mathrme^{-} →NADH+H+\rightarrow \mathrm{NADH}+\mathrm{H}^{+}Related Theory Glycolysis is a partial breakdown of a sixcarbon glucose molecule into two, threecarbon molecules of pyruvate, 2NADH,2H+2 \mathrm{NADH}, 2 \mathrm{H}^{+}, and 2 net ATP as a result of substrate-level phosphorylation. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
