Questions and Answers

What is the main purpose of dehydrogenation in the glycolysis pathway?

  • Regenerate NAD (correct)
  • Decarboxylate pyruvate
  • Form FAD
  • Produce ATP molecules
  • In anaerobic respiration, what role does pyruvate play in relation to NAD regeneration?

  • Pyruvate is converted to ethanol without involving NAD
  • Pyruvate accepts H atoms from NAD to regenerate it (correct)
  • Pyruvate forms CO2 without affecting NAD levels
  • Pyruvate generates ATP directly from NAD
  • What happens to ethanol formed in alcoholic fermentation when oxygen is available again?

  • Ethanol is converted back to pyruvate for energy production
  • Ethanol directly enters the Krebs cycle for ATP synthesis
  • Ethanol accumulates in the cell and can reach toxic levels (correct)
  • Ethanol is oxidized to produce NADH
  • During substrate-level phosphorylation in glycolysis, which process results in the conversion of ADP to ATP?
