The process of breaking down a molecule glucose (beginning with 2 ATP) to form CO2 + H2O + 36 ATP is called glycolysis.

Which energy molecule is produced as a result of a cellular respiration?

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy molecule produced as a result of cellular respiration. ATP is the primary energy carrier in most living organisms and is generated through the process of breaking down glucose molecules in the presence of oxygen.

How many molecules of ATP are made from breaking down a molecule of glucose?

About 36 ATP molecules are produced from a single molecule of glucose. There are 2 pathways by which ATP is produced one is aerobic (in presence of oxygen) and other is anerobic (without oxygen). ATP is the energy rich molecule produced at diffferent levels when a glucose molecule undergoes breakdown into intermediate compounds through a long pathway called glycolysis which takesplace in mitochondria. A complex series of events follow in glycolysis, which involve transfer of important groups like phosphate, hydroxyl etc from or to the glucose molecule. thus ATP is produced as a result of these complex events and utilised in daily energy requirements.

Is Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis?

Yes. Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis. This molecule contains three carbons. For every molecule of glucose that enters the glycolytic pathway, two molecules of pyruvate are formed


How can one pentose molecule be converted into two C2H5OH molecules and two CO2 molecules like one glucose molecule can be converted to two ethanol molecules and two carbon dioxide molecules?

Pentose molecules undergo a similar process as glucose to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide through fermentation. In a series of enzymatic reactions, pentose is converted to pyruvate, which is then converted to acetaldehyde and finally to ethanol. During this process, CO2 is released as a byproduct. The net result is the production of two ethanol molecules and two CO2 molecules from one pentose molecule.
