Answer #1

Usually rate limiting steps are irreversible and far from equilibrium and we can identify from the diagram that the reaction catalyzed by Phosphofructokinase, Hexokinase and Pyruvate kinase are irreversible, hence they are mostly rate limiting in glycolysis.

But phosphofructokinase is cosidered the important rate limiting step in the whole process.
