Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is NOT an OUTPUT for glycolysis?
A
ATP
B
NADH
C
pyruvic acid
D
carbon dioxide
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -FADH is not produced during glycolysis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide is not produced during glycolysis. Remember in glycolysis one glucose molecule yields 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, and 2 NADH. Heat is also given off in form of energy as we went over before. Carbon dioxide is involved in other processes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Overall, glycolysis converts one six-carbon molecule of glucose into two three-carbon molecules of pyruvate.
