Match Column - I with Column - II and select the CORRECT option from the codes given below.
| Column – I | Column – II | ||
| A. | Fats made of three fatty-acid chains attached to the glycerol | (i) | Glycogen |
| B. | Glycolysis metabolite made from glycerol | (ii) | Glyceraldehyde |
| C. | The storage form of glucose | (iii) | Triglycerides |
| D. | Result of running reactions of glycolysis in reverse | (iv) | Glucose |
Options:
Answer:
B
Solution:
Triglycerides are an ester of glycerol with three fatty acids and that are also known as triglycerol.
During glycolysis, glycerol 3-phosphate is generated from glucose which later on gets reduced to glyceraldehyde.
When the body doesn't use glucose so many glucose units join together and are stored in our body in the form of glycogen.
Glycolysis starts from the breakdown of glucose results into three-carbon compounds i.e. phosphoglyceraldehyde but in reverse glycolysis is gluconeogenesis in which glucose is formed.
