The three boxes in this diagram represent the three major biosynthetic pathways in aerobic respiration. Arrows represent net reactants or products

Arrows numbered 4, 8 and 12 can all be 

  • NADH

  • ATP

  • H2O

  • FAD+ or FADH2

Which of the metabolites is common to respiration mediated breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins?

  • Glucose-6-phosphate

  • Fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate

  • Pyruvic acid

  • Acetyl Co-A


D.

Acetyl Co-A

Acetyl Co-A is common to respiration mediated breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.

Glucose and fructose are phosphorylated to give rise to glucose 6-phosphate by the activity of the enzyme hexokinase. It then converts into fructose 6 phosphate and further to fructose 1-6-bisphosphate. Pyruvic acid is the end product of glycolysis.
