Glucose breakdown in certain mammalian and bacterial cells can occur by mechanisms other than classic glycolysis.  In most of these, glucose 6-phosphate is oxidized to 6-phosphogluconate, which is then further metabolized by:

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
  1. an aldolase-type split to form glyceric acid and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.

  2. an aldolase-type split to form glycolic acid and erythrose 4-phosphate.

  3. conversion to 1,6-bisphosphogluconate.

  4. decarboxylation to produce keto- and aldopentoses.

Following are given some prediction about stress response which ultimately generate ROS;
a) Stress response activates the scavenging mechanism by ROS , these ROS is responsible for activating self-generation  mechanism by using RBOH
b) ROS have a negative effect on plant growth,  development,  and  yield
c) Almost every stress leads to the activation of ROS and its signal transduction
d) ROS indirectly induce acclimation mechanisms
Which of the following is the correct prediction about ROS activated by stress response?
