Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In a series of steps that produce one NADH and two ATP, a glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate molecule is converted into a pyruvate molecule.
Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: The correct answer to this question is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is not produced during glycolysis. Remember in glycolysis one glucose molecule yields 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, and 2 NADH.
Detailed explanation-3: -FADH is not produced during glycolysis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Each glucose molecule generates two molecules of pyruvate; thus ATP gain is 6 moles per mole of glucose. Citric acid cycle.
