Glycolysis Quiz

Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate. It is significant because it is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration and provides energy for the cell.

Glycolysis consists of 10 steps. It begins with the phosphorylation of glucose and ends with the production of pyruvate. Some key steps include the formation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and the generation of ATP and NADH.

The end products of glycolysis are two molecules of pyruvate, two molecules of ATP, and two molecules of NADH.
