Previous problem

Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of pyruvate kinase in glycolysis: Pyruvate kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the final step of glycolysis, converting phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to pyruvate.

Identify the sequence of reactions in glycolysis: Glycolysis consists of 10 steps, each catalyzed by a specific enzyme.

Locate the reaction catalyzed by pyruvate kinase: Pyruvate kinase acts in the 10th reaction of glycolysis, where PEP is converted to pyruvate, producing ATP in the process.

Review the list of reactions provided: Compare the reaction numbers given in the problem with the known sequence of glycolysis reactions.

Confirm the correct reaction number: Based on the understanding that pyruvate kinase catalyzes the 10th reaction, verify that Reaction 10 is the correct answer.
