✴VARIOUS PATHWAYS FOR THE BREAKDOWN OF GLUCOSE ✴
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

✴THE first step is the breaks down of Glucose a 6 carbon molecule into Pyruvate a 3 carbon molecule.

✔Futhur types are :

✨In the Absence of Oxygen ( in yeast )

Pyruvate ------- Ethanol + CO2 + Energy { Anaerobic respiration}


✨In the lack of Oxygen ( in our muscle cells )

Pyruvate --------- Lactic acid + Energy


✨In the presence of Oxygen ( in the mitochondria)

Pyruvate ----------- H2O + CO2 + Energy { Aerobic Respuration}
