Detailed explanation-1: -In most cells glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate which is subsequently oxidized to carbon dioxide and water by mitochondrial enzymes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glycolysis starts with one molecule of glucose and ends with two pyruvate (pyruvic acid) molecules, a total of four ATP molecules, and two molecules of NADH.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glycolysis starts with glucose and ends with two pyruvate molecules, a total of four ATP molecules and two molecules of NADH.
Detailed explanation-4: -Sugars, such as galactose, fructose, and glycogen, are catabolized into new products in order to enter the glycolytic pathway.
Detailed explanation-5: -There are a variety of starting points for glycolysis; although, the most usual ones start with glucose or glycogen to produce glucose-6-phosphate. The starting points for other monosaccharides, galactose and fructose, are also shown.
