When one six-carbon molecule of glucose is oxidized through glycolysis, it is converted into two molecules of pyruvate, each containing three carbons. This process also produces a net gain of two ATP molecules and two NADH molecules, which are used in cellular respiration to generate additional ATP in later stages. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and is the first step in the breakdown of glucose for energy.
