Question

    Which process share the same pathway as glycolysis but in opposite direction?

    A Glycogenesis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Gluconeogenesis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Glycogenolysis Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D HMP-shunt Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E Kreb’s cycle Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Gluconeogenesis is the process that shares a similar pathway with glycolysis, but it occurs in the opposite direction. While glycolysis breaks down glucose to produce energy, gluconeogenesis synthesizes glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors like lactate, amino acids, and glycerol, primarily in the liver.
