Following statements are regarding to the centrosome cycle of an animal cell.
A. During G1, the daughter procentrioles continue to elongate.
B. During S phase, daughter procentrioles form adjacent to maternal centrioles so that two pairs of centrioles become visible within the centrosome. 
C. During G2 phase, the centrosome contains a single pair of centrioles.
D. At the beginning of mitosis, the centrosome splits, with each pair of centrioles becoming part of its own centrosome. As they separate, the centrosomes organize the microtubule fibres that make up the mitotic spindle.

The overall △G for glycolysis is -72 kJ/mol in erythrocytes. Which statement below is true?

A) The value of △G0ʹ is also -72 kJ/mol since the cytosol pH is close to 7.

B) The free energy of glycolysis is found as the sum of the standard free energy changes for

the individual pathway reactions.

C) The negative sign of △G shows that this pathway will proceed toward product (pyruvate) under normal cellular conditions.
