Glycolysis is the process by which energy is harvested from glucose by living things. Several of the reactions of glycolysis are thermodynamically unfavorable (nonspontaneous), but proceed when they are coupled with other reactions. Reaction A: P,+glucose → glucose-6-phosphate + H,O AG = 13.8 kJ/mol Reaction B: P +fructose-6-phosphate fructose-1,6-bisphosphate + H,0 AG = 16.3 kJ/mol Reaction C: ATP + H,O - ADP + P AG = -30.5 kJ/mol Select every unfavorable reaction. reaction A reaction B O reaction C O DO

Glycolysis is the process by which energy is harvested from glucose by living things. Several of the reactions of glycolysis are
thermodynamically unfavorable (nonspontaneous), but proceed when they are coupled with other reactions.
Reaction A: P +glucose
glucose-6-phosphate + H,O AG = 13.8 kJ/mol
Reaction B: P+fructose-6-phosphate fructose-1,6-bisphosphate + H,O AG = 16.3 kJ/mol
Reaction C:
ATP + H,O - ADP + P, AG = -30.5 kJ/mol
Select every unfavorable reaction.
reaction A
reaction B
O reaction C
