Is all of the lactic acid formed in glycolysis oxidized to carbon dioxide and water?

Lactic acid is not formed in glycolysis, pyruvate is (CH3COCOOH). Lactic acid (CH3CHOHCOOH) is formed afterwards in anaerobic repiration, by the reduction of pyruvate. After it is formed it is then transported to the liver where it is oxidised back to pyruvate in the hepatocytes. This then goes on to aerobic respiration entering at the link reaction stage. And yes is eventuallyturned into CO2 and H2O.

What is the major outcome of transition reaction?
Two pyruvic acids are formed after glycolysis. They go into a transitional stage and then the acids are oxidized into an acetyl group. Lastly carbon dioxide is released.
What is formed by the complete combustion of carbon?
carbon dioxide
What substance is formed when formed when lead oxide is mixed with carbon?
lead oxide + carbon-> lead + carbon dioxide
Is carbon dioxide a result of combustion?
Carbon dioxide is formed by the complete combustion of carbon itself or organic compounds.
What compound is formed when carbon is burned in the air?
carbon dioxide

Which end products are formed when simple sugars are oxidized in body cells?
Carbon Dioxide, water, and ATP
What happens to a six-carbon molecule of glucose during glycolysis?
enzyme-assisted anaerobic process that breaks down one six-carbon molecule of glucose to two three-carbon pyruvates
Can cell catabolyze carbon dioxide?
No, carbon dioxide is produced through cellular respiration. If cells could just break down carbon dioxide the production of ATP would not work.
What is formed when you burn carbon?
carbon dioxide
How many pyruvic acid are formed during glycolysis?
The enzymes of glycolysis catalyze the splitting of glucose, a six carbon sugar, into two three carbon sugars. These are then oxidized and their atoms rearrangged to form two molecules of pyruvic acid
What is formed by the complete combustion of carbon?
carbon dioxide
What substance is formed when formed when lead oxide is mixed with carbon?
lead oxide + carbon-> lead + carbon dioxide
Where is carbon dioxide formed during glucose metabolism?
When cellular respiration takes place the energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose (C6H12O6) is released that energy is used to produce ATP(adinosinetri phosphate): In respiration glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced to form water(H2O). The carbon atoms of the sugar molecule are released as carbon dioxide (CO2).
Is carbon dioxide a result of combustion?

What compound is formed when carbon is burned in the air?
carbon dioxide
What compound is formed by oxygen and carbon?
Carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are both formed from carbon and oxygen.and im awsome
