Explanation:
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: -NADH produces the following amount of ATP: Glycolysis: By oxidative phosphorylation, 2 NADH generates 6 ATP. Reaction to Transition: 2 NADH generates 6 ATP.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glycolysis: It is the process of breaking down glucose to create energy. Glycolysis generates 2 ATP and 2 NADH, for a total of 8 ATP molecules.
