Best Answer

Glycolysis (glycos, sugar + lysis, splitting)

A glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid. The pyruvic acid molecules are then absorbed by the mitochondria. In the mitochondrial matrix, a CO2 molecule is removed from each of the acid molecules. What is left of the pyruvic acid then enters the Krebs cycle.
