Glucose molecules break down in aerobic respiration via three proceess

1. Glycolysis.
-It is a process in which glucose completely oxidize and two molecules of NADH2 , ATP , water and pyruvic acid are formed.
-Once again the oxidation of Acetyle-Coenzyme-A occurs and water and CO2 is formed.

2. Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle ( Kreb cycle)
-As We saw earlier the acetyle part of acetyle-Coenzyme-A oxidised in presence of oxygen and NADH2 , FADH2 , water and CO2 is released.

3. Electron Transfer Chain Reaction.
-In this process glucose directly oxidised in aerobic respiration and CO2 and Water is released along with energy.

FADH2 - Flavin adenine dinucleotide
NADH2 - Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
ATP - Adenisine Triphosphate
