Options
- AFructose-6-phosphate → Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate
- B3-phosphate-glyceraldehyde → 1, 3 bisphosphoglyceric acid
- CPEP → Pyruvic acid
- D2- phosphoglycerate → PEP
Correct answer
D. 2- phosphoglycerate → PEP
Step-by-step solution
In glycolysis, a water molecule is removed during the conversion of 2-phosphoglycerate to PEP.
