hey mate!

breaking down of glucose can occur by various Pathways;

1- in presence of oxygen:

-breaking down of glucose into pyruvate takes place in mitochondria of a cell.

-end products are CO2 and H2O and energy.

2- In insufficient presence of oxygen:

-in muscle cells due to insufficient presence of oxygen the cells undergoes anaerobic respiration.

-end products are lactic acid and lot amount of energy.

3- In absence of oxygen:

-in absence of oxygen, glucose breakdown into pyruvate in cytoplasm only.

-end product are ethanol and small amount of energy.
