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: -Glycolysis is a series of reactions that extract energy from glucose by splitting it into two three-carbon molecules called pyruvates.
Detailed explanation-3: -The energy to split glucose is provided by two molecules of ATP. As glycolysis proceeds, energy is released, and the energy is used to make four molecules of ATP. As a result, there is a net gain of two ATP molecules during glycolysis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cellular respiration is the aerobic process by which living cells break down glucose molecules, release energy, and form molecules of ATP . Generally speaking, this three-stage process involves glucose and oxygen reacting to form carbon dioxide and water.
Detailed explanation-5: -The splitting stage is the second phase in the process of glycolysis. This involves the actual splitting of a molecule of fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate (a 6 carbonmolecule), produced from the Investment Stage of glycolysis, to two 3 carbon molecules.
