Glycolysis is the process in which one molecule of glucose is broken in half, producing 2 molecules of pyruvic acid (a 3 carbon compound looks like this -> c-c-c) it is the first set of reactions in cellular respiration.
before glucose is broken in half it turns 2 ADP into 2 ATP. after it breaks 4 ADP become 4 ATP, 2 NAD+ becomes 2 NADH and that goes on to to the electron transport chain, the end result of glycolysis produces 2 pyruvic acid.

What accurately describes the function of a metabolic pathway involved in cellular respiration?
The function of glycolysis is to begin catabolism by breaking glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, with a net yield of two ATP.
What must happen if glycolysis stopped happening in a cell?
Nope!
What is the function of aldolase in regulation of glycolysis?
Aldolase inhibits the reaction F-1-P --> glyceraldehyde + dihydroxyacetone.
What is the function of Glycosis?
the main purpose of glycolysis is to produce high-energy electrons for use in the electron transport chain.
How many ATP are produced for glycolysis and in glycolysis?
It takes 3 carbon compounds produced for glycolysis and in glycolysis.
What is the function of fermentation reactions?
to generate from , so glycolysis can continue

What is the function of NAD plus glycolysis?
to accept high energy electrons
What must happen if glycolysis stopped happening in a cell?
Nope!
What is the function of aldolase in regulation of glycolysis?
Aldolase inhibits the reaction F-1-P --> glyceraldehyde + dihydroxyacetone.
What one of these stages occurs in the cytosol of the cell?
The process is Glycolysis!
What is the function of Glycosis?
the main purpose of glycolysis is to produce high-energy electrons for use in the electron transport chain.
How many ATP are produced for glycolysis and in glycolysis?
It takes 3 carbon compounds produced for glycolysis and in glycolysis.
Process by which glucose is converted to pyruvic acid?
Glycolysis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycolysis
What exactly is the treatment for glycolysis?
Glycolysis is not a disease; there is no treatment for glycolysis, but reducing the amount of glycolysis in someone's body can help treat cancer. Reducing the amount of glycolysis will starve the cancer cells.
Is glycolysis an organism?
No, glycolysis is a process that organisms have
Active transport process by which materials are secreted or expelled from a cell?
exocytosis not glycolysis because glycolysis is the making of glucose
