Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Oxaloacetate is an intermediate found in gluconeogenesis and not in glycolysis. In gluconeogenesis, oxaloacetate is formed from pyruvate through a series of carboxylation and decarboxylation reactions. In contrast, in glycolysis, pyruvate is formed from glucose and then converted to acetyl-CoA for entry into the citric acid cycle. The other answer choices (A, C, and D) are all intermediates found in both glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.
