After glycolysis, there is no more glucose. The name glycolysis means "sugar splitting," and that's just what it does. It takes one glucose and splits it into two molecules of pyruvate, generating two ATPs as it goes. Following the short reaction when entering the mitochondria, the acetyl CoA (a form of the pyruvate) goes through the Krebs Cycle (or Citric Acid Cycle). Through a series of reactions, the energy is taken and incorporated into ADP to make ATP. Some of the energy will also go to NAD+ to form NADH (and some to FAD+ to form FADH2). These electron carriers then go to the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) to make the most ATPs in respiration through oxidative phosphorylation.

Where does most of the energy that is released by the breakdown of glucose to water and Carbon Dioxide ends up where?

Most of the energy released by the breakdown of glucose to water and carbon dioxide ends up in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is a molecule that cells use as a source of energy for various cellular processes.

How does the structure of starch make it suitable for its function?

Starch is made up of repeating glucose units arranged in long chains, allowing for compact storage of energy. The branching in its structure provides more ends for enzyme action, aiding in the rapid breakdown of starch into glucose for energy release. This structure also allows starch to be insoluble in water, preventing osmotic issues in plant cells.
