Document Summary

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process used to catabolize glucose. What does it mean for this process to be anaerobic? no oxygen is required. Co2 and h2o are generated during the oxidation of food molecules (true) Activated carrier molecules store heat energy for the cell to use later (false) - activated carriers have high-energy bonds that can drive other reactions when broken. Heat may be released during these reactions and may increase the reaction rates, but is not a form of energy that is stored in biological systems. Catabolism is a general term that refers to the processes by which large molecules are synthesized from smaller molecules (false) - catabolism comprises the metabolic reactions that are involved in breaking large molecules into smaller molecules. Anabolism encompasses the reverse types of reactions: synthesizing larger molecules from smaller molecules. The oxidation of sugar is an energetically favorable process (true) The final metabolite produced by glycolysis is pyruvate.
