Answer» Correct Answer - D Acetyl Co-A is common to respiration mediated breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins Glucose and fructose are phosphorylated to give rise to glucose-6-phosphate by the activity of the enzyme hexokinase.Glucose-6-phosphate is then converted into fructose-6-phosphaste adn purther to fructose 1-6-bisphosphate. Pyruvic acid is the end product of glycolysis. |
