Which of the following is not true?
A) Every reaction in a metabolic pathway must have a negative Δ G, or the pathway cannot run.
B) the reaction with the largest negative Ä G is the hexokinase reaction
C) the overall pathway of glycolysis has a negative Ä G
D) all of these are true

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer
