Ans 1 No feeding nonglucose monosaccharides in glycolytic pathways need NOT necessarily energetically more expensive Note the following points I In normal glycolytic pathways glucose is converted to fructose6phosphate F6P on expenditure of 1 ATP which is committed to go further in glycolysis II Fructose also directly to glycolysis when its converted to F1P on expenditure of 1 ATP F1P is catalyzed by    See Answer
