In the absence of oxygen, oxidation of glucose produces which of the following products?
I. C02
II. H20
III. ATP
i picked I and III, because fermentation produces C02, and glycolysis produces ATP, but the answer is III only
why doesnt the C02 get factored in...are they referring to only the glycolysis cycle when they say oxidation of glucose, because i feel its kinda ambiguous, especially when they throw absence of oxygen in there (anaerobic), makes you think of pyruvate being broken down to C02 through fermentation
anyone?
