Detailed explanation-1: -During glycolysis, glucose ultimately breaks down into pyruvate and energy; a total of 2 ATP is derived in the process (Glucose + 2 NAD+ + 2 ADP + 2 Pi–> 2 Pyruvate + 2 NADH + 2 H+ + 2 ATP + 2 H2O). The hydroxyl groups allow for phosphorylation. The specific form of glucose used in glycolysis is glucose 6-phosphate.
Detailed explanation-2: -Recall that glycolysis, stage I of cellular respiration, produces two molecules of pyruvate. These molecules enter the matrix of a mitochondrion, where they start the Krebs cycle.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: In glycolysis, for each molecule of glucose oxidized to pyruvate, C. two molecules of ATP are used and four molecules of ATP are produced. The initial two ATP molecules that are used up is required for the energy investment phase of glycolysis.
