Glucose is typically dismantled, carbon atoms are released as carbon dioxide.

Along the way small amounts of energy are produced (ATP) while the electrons from carbon are "harvested" together with the structural hydrogen from glucose. Finally, these electrons are passed along an electron transport chain where the greatest majority of energy (ATP) is produced. The electrons are gained by free oxygen, combined with hydrogen, and water is formed.
