Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Products of glycolysis include
A
pyruvate
B
ATP
C
NADH
D
all of these are made during glycolysis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -At the end of glycolysis of one molecule of glucose, two molecules of ATP, NADH2, pyruvic acid and water are formed.

Detailed explanation-2: -1: Glycolysis produces 2 ATP, 2 NADH, and 2 pyruvate molecules: Glycolysis, or the aerobic catabolic breakdown of glucose, produces energy in the form of ATP, NADH, and pyruvate, which itself enters the citric acid cycle to produce more energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -The end products of glycolysis are: pyruvic acid (pyruvate), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), protons (hydrogen ions (H2+)), and water (H2O). Glycolysis is the first step of cellular respiration, the process by which a cell converts nutrients into energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Glycolysis is the premier metabolic pathway, responsible for the creation of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), Pyruvate, and NADH (Reduced Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide), through release of free energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -The three main products of glycolysis are ATP, which is generated through substrate-level phosphorylation, NADH as result of REDOX reactions, and pyruvate molecules.
