Entner-Doudoroff pathway is found in

  • A.aerobic prokaryotes
  • B.anaerobic prokaryotes
  • C.both (a) and (b)

Answer: C

Correct answer: both (a) and (b)

The Entner-Doudoroff pathway is found in prokaryotes of both kinds - aerobes such as Pseudomonas and anaerobes such as Zymomonas. It is an alternative to glycolysis, yielding only 1 ATP per glucose instead of 2, and it is essentially absent from eukaryotes.
