Different reactions have different metabolites which may act as energy storing molecules. For instance, in glycolysis, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and phosphoenolpyruvate represent just two of the main energy storing molecules.
There are no glucose molecules produced in the light reaction. The light reaction produces ATP and NADPH, which are used in the Calvin cycle to produce glucose from CO2.
If 2 NADH molecules were produced in glycolysis, it means that 1 glucose molecule was broken down. Each glucose molecule yields 2 NADH molecules during glycolysis.
The bonding of sugars is a condensation reaction, producing one water molecule with each reaction. To bond four simple sugars, three bondings are required, which means three water molecules are produced.
Glucose is modified by particular reactions, and eventually splits into 2 3 carbon sugars, which interconvert between each other. These are modified further to produce pyruvate. Glycolysis literally means, "splitting sugars".
Glycolysis produces a net gain of 2 ATP molecules for each reaction
The correct order is glycolysis, preparatory reaction, citric acid cycle, and then the electron transport chain. During these steps, the cell gradually breaks down glucose to produce ATP, the cell's main energy source. Each stage in the process plays a specific role in extracting energy from glucose molecules.
Glycolysis produces a net gain of 2 ATP molecules and 2 NADH molecules per glucose molecule. Each ATP molecule provides about 7.3 kilocalories of energy.

Approximately 30-32 molecules of ATP are produced by oxidative phosphorylation for each glucose molecule that enters glycolysis.
If 2 NADH molecules were produced in glycolysis, it means that 1 glucose molecule was broken down. Each glucose molecule yields 2 NADH molecules during glycolysis.
Two molecules of pyruvic acid are derived from each glucose that goes through glycolysis.
The maximum number of ATP molecules that can be produced from each glucose molecule in aerobic respiration is 36-38 ATP molecules. This occurs through glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.
The balanced equation for this reaction is: N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3. During the reaction, one nitrogen molecule (N2) reacts with three hydrogen molecules (H2) to produce two ammonia molecules (NH3), each containing one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms.
In aerobic respiration, one molecule of glucose can produce up to 36 molecules of ATP through the process of glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. Each NADH molecule produced in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle can generate up to 3 molecules of ATP, while each FADH2 molecule can generate up to 2 molecules of ATP in the electron transport chain. Overall, the complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose generates a maximum of 12 water molecules as a byproduct.
There is a net gain of two ATP molecules for each glucose broken down.
