Explanation:

ANAEROBIC PATHWAY

1. Glycolysis

The initial breakdown of glucose occurs in the cell cytoplasm. This is an anaerobic reaction of cellular respiration, meaning that it does not require oxygen. Here, in a series of eight individual reactions, a six-carbon glucose molecule is metabolized using two adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules to form two three-carbon pyruvate molecules, two H

2

O (water) molecules and four ATP molecules for a net gain of two ATP molecules. ATP is a primary source of energy in human metabolism.

2. The Preparatory Reaction

This reaction occurs in the matrix, or interior, of the mitochondria of cells. Here, the two pyruvate molecules from glycolysis are combined with two coenzyme A (CoA) molecules to produce two acetyl-CoA molecules and two carbon dioxide (C

O

2) molecules. This reaction occurs in a single step and, like glycolysis, is anaerobic.
