Statement I: | In fermentation, there is a net gain of 12 molecules of ATP for each molecule of glucose degraded to pyruvic acid whereas only 2 molecules of ATP are generated under aerobic conditions. |
Statement II: | Fermentation accounts for only a partial breakdown of glucose whereas in aerobic respiration it is completely degraded to CO2 and H2O. |
Statement I: | The first five reactions of glycolytic pathway convert a molecule of glucose into 2 molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. |
Statement II: | The final product of glycolysis is pyruvate in aerobic settings and lactate in anaerobic conditions. |
