<prompt> Regarding HMP shunt all of the following are true, EXCEPT:Occurs in the cytosolNo ATP is produced in the cycleIt is active in Adipose tissue, Liver and GonadsThe oxidative phase generates NADPH and the Non oxidative phase generates pyruvate  <response>: The oxidative phase generates NADPH and the non oxidative phase generates pyruvate. The oxidative phase generated NADPH, however the Non oxidative phase generates Ribose precursors that are required for nucleic acid biosynthesis.
