10 Questions
What is the end product of glycolysis under anaerobic conditions?
Lactic acid
Where does glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm
What are the end products of glycolysis under aerobic conditions?
Pyruvate, ATP, NADH+H+
What happens to pyruvate under aerobic conditions?
It is converted into acetyl CoA and enters the TCA cycle
What is the overall net reaction of glycolysis under anaerobic conditions?
Glucose -> 2 Lactic acid + 2 ATP + 2 NAD+
During aerobic glycolysis, pyruvate and NADH+H+ enter the mitochondria for further transformation.
True
Lactic acid is formed in the cytoplasm from pyruvate and NADH to regenerate NAD+ in anaerobic conditions.
True
Glycolysis occurs in the mitochondria of all cells.
False
The overall net reaction of glycolysis under anaerobic conditions consists of 11 coupled reactions.
False
Glycolysis is the central pathway for the anabolism of glucose.
False
