Which of the following statements about substrate-level phosphorylation is false?

It occurs in the Krebs cycle.


The oxidation of intermediate metabolic compounds releases energy that is used to generate ATP.


It involves the direct transfer of a high-energy phosphate group from an intermediate metabolic compound to ADP.


No final electron acceptor is required.


It occurs in glycolysis.Which of the following statements about substrate-level phosphorylation is false?
It involves the direct transfer of a high-energy phosphate group from an intermediate metabolic compound to ADP.Which of the following statements about substrate-level phosphorylation is false?
The one about ADP. It transfers a phosphate from ATP to the substrate, leaving ADP. The first and last answers are no right, because phosphorylation is part of virtually everything that happens in biology, and those two pathways are complex.
