What is the result of glycolysis?

Glycolysis starting with glucose results in the production of 2 x pyruvic acids per glucose which continue on in to the mitochondria, in the presence of oxygen, for complete breakdown; a net gain of 2 x ATP and the production of 2 x NADH2 which can enter the mitochondria and via their donated electrons give rise to 3 x ATP per NADH2 inn the presence of oxygen.


Which one is formed during the Krebs cycle FADH2 or pyruvic acid?

FADH2 since pyruvic acid is needed to START the Krebs cycle


How is glucose changed during glycolysis what products are produced as a result of glycolysis?

Glycolysis is the process during which glucose is broken in half, and produces pyruvic acid (3-carbon compound)


What substance accumulates in cell as a result anaerobic metabolism?

Lactic acid accumulates in cells as a result of anaerobic metabolism. This occurs when cells do not have enough oxygen to produce energy through aerobic respiration, and instead rely on anaerobic glycolysis to generate ATP.


What molecule does the process of glycolysis start mith and what molecules is the final result?

It starts off with glucose and exits glycolysis with 2 Pyruvic Acid molecules.


What are the carbon containing end products of the glycolysis of one glucose molecule?

the result of glycolysis: * pyruvic acid (the answer to this question) * 2 ATP * 2 NADH


What 3 things does glycolysis produce?

Glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration. Basically what happens is that a glucose molecule is broken into two pyruvic acid molecules. The equation that summarizes the reaction is as follows: Glucose + 2 ATP + 2NAD --> 2 Pyruvic Acid + 4 ATP + 2 NADH So the net result is: 2 ATP's 2 Pyruvic Acids 2 NADH Hope this helps! =)


The function of glycolysis?

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.


Lactic acid is produced as a result of the chemical reduction of?

pyruvic acid


Athletes sometimes complain of oxygen debt a condition that results when insufficient oxygen is available to completely break down pyruvic acid As a result the pyruvic acid is converted to?

lactic acid through anaerobic metabolism. This process can produce a buildup of lactic acid in muscles, leading to muscle fatigue and discomfort. Adequate oxygen levels are needed to break down pyruvic acid efficiently through aerobic metabolism without accumulating lactic acid.


What molecule accumulates in the liver as a result of alcohol abuse?

triglycerides


What best summarizes what occurs as a result of glycolysis?

glucose is broken into pyruvate
