The step in glycolysis in which energy transfer is not involved is:
Correct answer: B. Fructose diphosphate → DAP
- A. Glucose phosphate → fructose diphosphate
- B. Fructose diphosphate → DAP
- C. PGAL→ PGAP
- D. PGAP→ PGA
Explanation
Energy transfer here occurs by the transfer of phosphate group from one compound to another.

About Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration releases energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, producing ATP. The pathway differs in oxygen availability: aerobic respiration uses oxygen and yields more ATP, while anaerobic respiration produces much less ATP and forms lactic acid in muscles or ethanol and carbon dioxide in yeast.
