Although glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway have several common metabolites, they are markedly different otherwise. All of the following statements are true, EXCEPT:
CO2 is produced in the pentose phosphate pathway, but not in glycolysis. ATP is generated in glycolysis, but not in the pentose phosphate pathway. Mg2+ ions are required for both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway. Thiamine is used as a coenzyme in both glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway
