Chapter 29: Q29-7P (page 982)

PROBLEM 29-7 Identify the two steps of glycolysis in which ATP is produced.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Steps 7 and 10 of glycolysis produce ATP.

Step by step solution

01

Introduction to the Concept

Glycolysis, also known as the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway, is a series of ten chemical events that occur in most cells to break down glucose and release energy, which is subsequently caught and stored in ATP.

02

Solution Explanation

Step 7 of glycolysis:

It involves converting a phosphate from the carboxyl group to ADP, which resultsin the synthesis of ATP and the formation of 3-phosphoglycerate.

Step 10 of glycolysis:

It also creates ATP, a phosphate is converted from phosphoenolpyruvate PEP to ADP, resulting in pyruvate and ATP.

The following is the reaction:

Hereby the productionof ATP is from the steps 7 and 10 of glycolysis.
