Question 13. . Which of the following is not true of glycolysis?
  1.    ADP is phosphorylated to ATP via substrate level phosphorylation
  2.    The pathway does not require oxygen
  3.    The pathway oxidizes two moles of NADH to NAD+ for each mole of glucose that enters
  4.    The pathway requires two moles of ATP to get started catabo-lizing each mole of glucose
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> The pathway oxidizes two moles of NADH to NAD+ for each mole of glucose that enters
Question 14. . In glycolysis, ATP is formed by the transfer of a high-energy phosphate from 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to ADR No such high-energy phosphate donor has ever been isolated in mitochondria because
