The primary end product of glycolysis is
A) adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
B) creatine phosphate (CP).
C) lactic acid.
D) pyruvic acid.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The primary end product of glycolysis is pyruvic acid, which can be further metabolized in either aerobic or anaerobic respiration pathways. ATP is produced through glycolysis but is not the primary end product. Creatine phosphate is not produced in glycolysis. Lactic acid is a potential end product of glycolysis but only in anaerobic cellular respiration.
