Wrong Again. For each of the following false statements, change the statement to make it true, and explain why it was false.
(a)Although the reactions of gluconeogenesis are simply the reverse of the reactions of glycolysis, gluconeogenesis requires more energy than glycolysis releases.
(b)Because glycolysis involves the partial oxidation of glucose, it cannot proceed in the absence of oxygen.
(c)ATP is ideal for the energy currency of the cell because it has the most negative standard free energy change ( G ° )of hydrolysis of any phosphorylated compound in the cell.
(d)Because energy production is so important in the cell, glycolytic enzymes function solely to degrade glucose.
