Glycolysis is the process in which one glucose molecule is broken down to form two molecules of pyruvic acid (also called pyruvate). The glycolysis process is a multi-step metabolic pathway that occurs in the cytoplasm of animal cells, plant cells, and the cells of microorganisms.

Explanation:

Glycolysis.

Defination:-

Glycolysis is the process in which glucose is broken down to produce energy. It produces two molecules of pyruvate, ATP, NADH and water. The process takes place in the cytosol of the cell cytoplasm, in the presence or absence of oxygen.

Key points:-

  • It is the process in which a glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
  • The process takes place in the cytoplasm of plant and animal cell.
  • Six enzymes are involved in the process.
  • The end products of the reaction include 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP and 2 NADH molecules.
