Question
The ATP produced during glycolysis are produced by
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
The ATP in glycolysis is generated directly when a high-energy phosphate group is transferred from an intermediate molecule (like 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate or phosphoenolpyruvate) to ADP. This is substrate-level phosphorylation.
Hint
Is the ATP made by a direct enzymatic transfer (substrate-level) or via a gradient (oxidative)?
