Detailed Solution

Glucose and Fructose can directly enter into glycolysis as they can be phosphorylated directly by hexokinase. Glucose-6- phosphate and Fructose-6-phosphate are one of the intermediates of glycolysis. Galactose monophosphates and Ribose monophosphate are not the intermediates of glycolysis or other respiratory pathways.
