Answer:

Glycolysis has several important features:

  • It breaks down one molecule of glucose, a 6-carbon molecule, into two molecules of pyruvate, a 3-carbon molecule, in a controlled manner by ten or more enzymatic reactions. ...
  • It makes a small amount of ATP, a process known as substrate-level phosphorylation.
  • It occurs quickly, and can supply oxygen quickly when oxygen is not available. The pyruvic acid produced in glycolysis enters the (chloroplasts) if oxygen is present in a cell. In the matrix, pyruvic acid is converted to (lactic) acid before the Krebs Cycle begins.
  • The glycolytic pathway can be divided into three stages: (1) glucose is trapped and destabilized; (2) two interconvertible three-carbon molecules are generated by cleavage of six-carbon fructose; and (3) ATP is generated.
  • 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.
