Okay, so we're trying to figure out where glycolysis takes place in the cell.
00:11
First we want to ask ourselves, what is glycolysis? well, we have glyco, which is multi -chained carbon molecules that have energy stored.
00:25
And lysos, which means to remove, detach.
00:28
So where are we detaching these multi -carbon chained molecules? that's what we're trying to find out.
00:34
The first option is the nucleus.
00:39
Now, do we store our long chain storage units like glycogen and such in the nucleus? what is in the nucleus? that would be dna.
00:51
This is where dna replication occurs and all that stuff, dna expression.
00:56
So this is not the answer.
00:58
The next one is the mitochondria.
01:04
Now, what takes place in the mitochondria? energy production.
01:10
Now, this might seem like the answer, but remember, by the time molecules get to the mitochondria, they're not really dealing with the bigger molecules of glycogen...
