If one molecule of glucose undergoes the reaction of glycolysis, what is produced?(1 point)

Question

Responses

3 NADH and 1 FADH2
3 NADH and 1 FADH2

4 ATPs, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH2
4 ATPs, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH2

2 ATPs, 2 NADH, and 2 Pyruvate
2 ATPs, 2 NADH, and 2 Pyruvate

1 ATP, 3 NADH, and 1 Pyruvate

Answer 1

The correct response is:

2 ATPs, 2 NADH, and 2 Pyruvate

Glycolysis is the pathway that breaks down one molecule of glucose (6 carbons) into two molecules of pyruvate (3 carbons each), producing a net gain of 2 ATP and 2 NADH in the process.
