Glycolysis is the first step in releasing energy from glucose and therefore is supplying energy to the cell.
The first stage in cellular respiration (releasing the energy from glucose) is known as glycolysis. This is a 10 step process. In many bacteria this is the only step that is down to release energy from glucose. The products of this step are two pyruvate and 4 ATP although 2 ATP are also used in this step, so in terms of net production 2 ATP are the result.

In cells, the energy available in food is used to make an energy-rich compound called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the primary energy currency of cells and is used to power various cellular processes and functions.
Compared with burning, cellular respiration is a more controlled fall of electrons- more like a step-by-step walk of electrons down an energy staircase. Instead of releasing food energy in a burst of flame, cellular respiration unlocks food energy in small amounts that cells can put to productive use which is the conversion of food energy to ATP energy.
In prokaryotic cells, the process of releasing energy from food molecules primarily occurs in the cytoplasm and across the plasma membrane. Glycolysis, the initial step of cellular respiration, takes place in the cytoplasm, breaking down glucose into pyruvate. Subsequently, if oxygen is present, pyruvate can be further processed in the plasma membrane through oxidative phosphorylation. In anaerobic conditions, fermentation pathways may also occur in the cytoplasm.
This ordered sequence of reactions is called a metabolic pathway. It involves specific enzymes that catalyze each step in the process of extracting, storing, and releasing energy from molecules such as glucose. Metabolic pathways are essential for sustaining life processes in cells and organisms.
First is injestion, respiration is the natural next step.
To effectively manage energy levels throughout the day using the step up, power down approach, one should start the day with a high-energy activity or task to boost alertness and focus. Then, gradually transition to lower-energy tasks as the day progresses to prevent burnout. Finally, end the day with calming activities to promote relaxation and restful sleep. This approach helps maintain a balance of energy levels throughout the day.
They do not step up energy. They can step up voltage.
This energy is derived from the chemical bond energy in food molecules, which thereby serve as fuel for cells. The first step is the enzymatic breakdown of food molecules in digestion, and the second step that converts glucose molecules is called glycolysis.
Main source of energy in cells is by burning the glucose, fats and excess of amine acids, by a process called biological oxidation. In all these, we get organic molecules of lower and lower energy level and releasing energy step by step, witch is trapped in making by converting ADP into ATP and some part into heat energy. For example, there are almost 20 steps through witch we come down in breaking glucose into final products of oxidation. (C O 2 and H 2 O. )
