In glycolysis ATP is produced by the following enzyme______________?

Correct answer: B. Phosphoglycerate kinase

  • A. Hexokinase
  • B. Phosphoglycerate kinase
  • C. Enolase
  • D. Phosphohexose isomerase

Explanation

Phosphoglycerate kinase generates ATP by transferring a phosphate from 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to ADP. Hexokinase consumes ATP, while enolase and phosphohexose isomerase do not directly produce it.
