Answer:

The correct answer is pneumonia.

Explanation:

The elderly suffering from pneumonia makes them susceptible to various other issues. Due to its rapid occurrence and tendency to disperse to other sections of the body, pneumonia can be lethal. Even a mild case of pneumonia results in an extreme blow to the immune system that can cause an underlying condition like a heart condition into a life-threatening problem.

As older individuals generally possess these additional issues, any kind of pneumonia can possess dangerous consequences.

lapo4ka [179]

Glycolysis is the metabolic process of converting glucose into a pyruvate. It serves as a foundation for the two cellular respiration namely the aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It has four reactions namely, hexokinase, glucose-6 pshospahate isomerase, phosphofructokinase (PFK) and aldolase.

Aldolase or Glycolysis reaction 4 is significant because it splits the fructose1,6 biphosphonate into glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (GAP) and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP).
