... the metabolism part. As for the first question, I can only guess that it is a more favorable reaction to phosphorylate a hydroxyl group on the chain (carbon 1) in a ketose sugar than any of the hydroxyl groups inside the ring of an aldose sugar (aldose sugars like glucose do not have a hydroxyl ...

So here is what i know so far glycolysis --> pyruvate oxidation --> citric acid cycle --> electron transport chain --> produces a total of 32 ATP So here is what i am confused about. For plants, they go through photophosphorylation instead of the oxidative phosphorylation ...
