- For the complete oxidation of 16 glucose molecules as a result of cellular respiration in plants, how many of the following would be produced? Show your computation. A. PyruvateCan you please pick the right answer in each parentheses? The pentose phosphate pathway provides a number of critical functions including ["production of ribose-5-phosphate", "production of NADH"] that is vital for ["synthesis of nucleotides and coenzymes", "oxidative phosphorylation"] . This pathway is divided into oxidative and non-oxidative steps. The latter steps ["are involved in the conversion of various sugar phopshates, so called ["carbon shuffle reactions"", "are directly involved in NADPH production"] . If ["NADP+", "NAD+"] levels are high, flux through the pentose phosphate pathway is promoted by allosteric regulation of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. If reducing equivalents derived form the pentose phosphate pathway are high, glucose-6-phosphate is directed toward ["a phosphatase and then export from the cell", "glycolysis"] .Write the net Cellular Respiration of Glucose please asap
