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.
Nadh and ATP
The first three-carbon compound produced in glycolysis is glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) from the six-carbon glucose molecule. This occurs after the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
Glycolysis results in a net gain of 2 ATP. Aerobic respiration results in 36 - 38 ATP.

Pyruvic acid is created during glycolysis.
Correct answer: 2
The first three-carbon compound produced in glycolysis is glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) from the six-carbon glucose molecule. This occurs after the glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
While 2 net ATP are created in glycolysis, there also is a requirement of 2 ATP initially for glycolysis to take place
The 3 carbon molecule created from pGAL in glycolysis which is also produced in the Calvin cyclein photosynthesis.
Glycolysis results in a net gain of 2 ATP. Aerobic respiration results in 36 - 38 ATP.
