Metabolites in HMP shunt are all except

A
Glycerol–3 phosphate
B
Sedoheptulose–7 phosphate
C
Glyceraldehyde–3 phosphate
D
Xylulose–5 phosphate
High-Yield Explanation
Glycerol-3 phosphate  Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is produced (not glycerol-3-phosphate). Metabolites in HMP shunt Oxidative phase:- Glucose-6-phosphate → 6-phosphogluconate → Ribulose-5-phosphate. Non-oxidatative phase :- Xylulose-5-phosphate, Ribose-5-phosphate, sedoheptulose-7-phosphate, erythrose-4-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
