The transfer of a phosphoryl group
(b)
Interpretation: To identify the number of phosphate groups in phosphoenolpyruvate.
Concept introduction: Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that breaks down a glucose molecule and converts it into two pyruvate molecules along with the production of two ATP molecules and NADH coenzymes. The conversion of a glucose molecule to the pyruvate molecules is an oxidation process in which no molecular
