Dihydroxyacetone phosphate

Vedclass · Answer

(B) During the process of glycolysis,$1$ molecule of glucose ($6$ carbons) is broken down into $2$ molecules of glyceraldehyde-$3$-phosphate ($3$ carbons) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate ($3$ carbons).Dihydroxyacetone phosphate $(DHAP)$ is a ketose sugar,as it contains a ketone functional group $(C=O)$ at the second carbon position.Glyceraldehyde-$3$-phosphate is an aldose sugar.Ribose is a pentose sugar (aldose).Glucose is a hexose sugar (aldose).Therefore,the correct answer is dihydroxyacetone phosphate.

Column-$I$ (Molecules)	Column-$II$ (Number of Carbon and Phosphorus)
$P$. Fructose $1, 6$-bisphosphate	$I$. $(C-3), (P-2)$
$Q$. Glucose-$6$-phosphate	$II$. $(C-3), (P-1)$
$R$. $DHAP$	$III$. $(C-6), (P-2)$
$S$. $BPGA$	$IV$. $(C-6), (P-1)$

Which of the following is an example of a ketose sugar formed during respiration?
