Question

Please answer the question fully. Thanks in advance.

The following balanced equation represents the overall pathway reaction for a fermentation. Demonstrate by use of the method of oxidation states of carbon that the pathway is indeed anaerobic. Show the oxidation state of each and every carbon (excluding those of ADP and ATP)-you will have to write the molecular structures for glucose, succinate, n-butanol, ethylene glycol and CO2. End your answer with a one sentence narrative conclusion. 2 glucose + 5 Pi + 5 ADP + 3 H+ succinate + n-butanol + ethylene glycol + 2CO2 + 6H2O + 5 ATP

Explanation / Answer

YOur first answer => Glycolysis is an anaerobic metabolism as it doesn't require oxygen. Because there is no net change in the oxidation state of carbon.

For your next answer , you can refer to wiki as it is too lengthy. But if you want it anyway then rate me 5 star and comment. Then i will help. Thanks.
