BIOSCI 101 Glycolysis

Question 1

What Happens in the Trapping and Investment Stage of Glycolysis?

Answer 1

Glucose is trapped but not recognised by GLUT, phosphate charged, G6P tagged for other things.

Question 2

What Happens in the 1st Rearrangement Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 2

G6P becomes F6P.

Question 3

What Happens in the 2nd Rearrangement Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 3

F6P split into G3P and DHAP.

Question 4

What Happens in the Oxidation (Energy Harvest) Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 4

Pi injection, P added.

Question 5

What Happens in the 2nd Energy Harvest Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 5

P removed, 2ADP become 2ATP.

Question 6

What Happens in the 3rd Rearrangement Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 6

P moved up carbon chain.

Question 7

What Happens in the 4th Rearrangement/Dehydration Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 7

2 H2O removed to form pyruvate.

Question 8

What Happens in the Final Energy Harvest Stage in Glycolysis?

Answer 8

2ADP become 2 ATP, forming pyruvate.
