The oxidation of G3P is accompanied by the reduction of two molecules of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD) Step 4: The phosphate groups added in step 1 and step 3 are removed from the threecarbon compounds formed in step 3.
Each phosphate group is combined with a molecule of ADP to make a molecule of ATP.
Because a total of four phosphate groups were added in step 1 and step 3, four molecules of
ATP are produced. Glycolysis has a net yield of two ATP molecules for every molecule of glucose that’s converted into pyruvic acid. D. Fermentation The combination of glycolysis and these additional pathways, which regenerate NAD+. The fermentation pathways thus allow for the continued production of ATP. There are two common fermentation pathways resulting in the production of latic acid and ethyl alcohol. E. Lactic Acid Fermentation An enzyme converts pyruvic acid made during glycolysis into another threecarbon compound. Occurs in your muscle cells during very strenuous exercise, such as sprinting. F. Alcoholic Fermentation
To convert pyruvic acid into ethyl alcohol. After glycolysis, this pathway requires two steps: A Co2 molecule is removed from pyruvic acid, leaving the twocarbon compound Two hydrogen atoms are added to the twocarbon compound to form ethyl alcohol. G. Efficiency of Glycolysis
Kilocalories: thousands of heat calories
Efficiency of glycolysis=Energy required to make ATP Energy released by oxidation of glucose Section 2: Aerobic Respiration
When oxygen is available, pyruvic acid undergoes aerobic respiration, the pathway of cellular respiration that requires oxygen.
A. Overview of Aerobic Respiration
Aerobic respiration has two major stages: the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, which is associated with chemiosmosis.
In the Krebs cycle, the oxidation of glucose that began with glycolysis is completed.
