Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is Pyruvate.
Detailed explanation-2: -In most cells glycolysis converts glucose to pyruvate which is subsequently oxidized to carbon dioxide and water by mitochondrial enzymes.
Detailed explanation-3: -The process begins with Glycolysis. In this first step, a molecule of glucose, which has six carbon atoms, is split into two three-carbon molecules. The three-carbon molecule is called pyruvate.
Detailed explanation-4: -Pyruvates is the three carbon end product of glycolysis.
