Question

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process used to catabolize glucose. What does it mean

for this process to be anaerobic?______
(a) no oxygen is required
(b) no oxidation occurs
(c) it takes place in the lysosome
(d) glucose is broken down by the addition of electrons

Answer 1

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process that does not require oxygen. It produces a small amount of ATP compared to processes that require oxygen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process - it does not need oxygen to proceed. This process produces a minimal amount of ATP. The Krebs cycle and electron transport do need oxygen to proceed, and in the presence of oxygen, these processes produce much more ATP than glycolysis alone.
