What is the main transformation that occurs during glycolysis? Glycolysis produces ATP, pyruvate, and NADH by oxidizing glucose.
Glycolysis produces ATP, pyruvate, and NADH by oxidizing glucose.
Glycolysis occurs in nearly all living cells or organisms.
Glucose provides most of the energy used/produced by cells.
Glucose is the principal source and is mainly used in glycolysis for the production of energy for cellular metabolism.
Glycosis helps to process glucose to pyruvate in many cellular respiration procedures.
In the presence of oxygen, one glucose molecule has the energy to make up to 38 ATP.
The ATP production is determined by the following steps, (-2 ATP) glycolysis preparatory phase, (7-9 ATP) glycolysis pay-off phase, (5 ATP) oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and (20 ATP) Krebs cycle. One glucose which has 38 ATP hence was the summation of all the process mentioned that took place.
All these processes take place under the cellular function of cellular respiration.
Thus, glycolysis is the one responsible for enzyme breakdown and releasing energy which is important for krebs cycle and for atp molecules to be produced.
