Does the degradation of ingested starch to form glucose (that can enter glycolysis) require an input of energy

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose molecule pyruvate molecules, and the energy released from the process are stored as ATP and NADH.

Glycolysis pathway produces energy that is required in for cell metabolic activity. 2 ATP is used up in the glycoysis pathway and 4 ATP is produced and 2 NADPH as output used as source of energy.

Nearly all organisms that break down glucose uses glycolysis. In some organisms, glycolysis is the only method used to produce energy.

i believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. the scientists need to look at the   validity of data, claims, hypotheses, and observations before  developing an argument. they base their arguments on facts that are present and they make sure they have proofs.
