Glycolysis 1

Glycolysis 1

1. the splitting of glucose to produce pyruvate

   • requires glucose, ATP,ADP,Pi and NAD+
     • Produces NADH+H+ and ATP

2. For every molecule of glucose, two molecules of ATP are used initially.

   • Four molecules of ATP are produced. so there is a net production of two
     • this occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration

3. during aerobic respiration, additional energy is available from NAD

   • 2 NADH produced
     • electrons must pass into the mitochondrion to produce more ATP by oxidative phosphylation
   • 2 molecules of pyruvate per glucose
