Distinguish between the following:
Glycolysis and Fermentation
Following reactions occur during glycolysis. Arrange them in the order of their occurrence in the glycolytic pathway.
- Dihydroxy acetone phosphate → Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate
- Fructose-6-phosphate → Fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate
- Phosphoenolpyruvate → Pyruvic acid
- 2-Phosphoglycerat → Phosphoenolpyruvate
- Glucose-6-phosphate → Fructose-6- phosphate
- 1,3-bisphosphoglyceric acid → 3- phosphoglyceric acid
