Identify the levels of organization in the figure above.
-Label A: ______________________________
Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate
An important sugar molecule involved in glycolysis, the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate, releasing energy.
Phosphate Groups
Chemical groups containing one phosphorus atom bonded to four oxygen atoms, important for energy transfer and storage in cells.
Glycolysis
Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, generating ATP and NADH as energy sources for the cell, occurring in the cytoplasm of cells.
NADH Molecules
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) plus hydrogen (H), an important coenzyme in the body that plays a key role in the energy production process within cells through redox reactions.
