Question

The first three steps of glycolysis are called as ______.

Options

• Preparatory phases

• Synthetic phases

• Dehydration phases

• Dephosphorylation phases

Answer 1

The first three steps of glycolysis are called as Preparatory phases.

Explanation:

The phosphorylation of the glucose ring occurs during the first three steps of glycolysis. In the second step of the cycle, fructose 6 phosphate is converted to glucose 6 phosphate, and in the third step, fructose 6 phosphate is converted to fructose 1,6 bisphosphate. The preliminary phase is known as the three phases.
