In glycolysis, glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate is converted into glycerate-3-phosphate by losing _ phosphate molecules.
Correct answer: C. 1
- A. 3
- B. 2
- C. 1
- D. 4
Explanation
In glycolysis, the conversion of glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate to glycerate-3-phosphate involves the loss of one phosphate molecule. The specific enzyme catalyzing this reaction is phosphoglycerate kinase.

About Bioenergetics
Cellular respiration explains how cells release energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain. It includes ATP production, substrate-level and oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic versus anaerobic respiration, and the roles of mitochondria, oxygen and fermentation in energy transfer.
