b.
To explain:
The reaction glucose-
Introduction:
Glycolysis is the first step in the cellular respiration and is a common step in both aerobic and anaerobic organisms. It involves set of ten reactions, which catalyzes the breakdown of glucose sugar. After glycolysis, one molecule of glucose yields two molecules of pyruvate, two molecules of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and two NADH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) molecules.
c.
To explain:
The reaction phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate produces ATP or NADH.
