Question
Glycolysisa. occurs in the mitochondria.b. requires oxygen.c. splits glucose into pyruvate.d. nets 32 molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose.
Step 1
Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate. The free energy released in this process is used to form the high-energy molecules ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADH (reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). Show more…
