WHY is glucose converted to pyruvate?

glycolysis occur in the cytosol just outside of mitrocondria


Do plants undergo glycolysis?

No, plants do not undergo glycolysis. Glycolysis is a metabolic process that occurs in the cytoplasm of cells to break down glucose into pyruvate. In plants, glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of plant cells just like in animal cells.


How are glycolysis and cellular respiration the same?

Both glycolysis and cellular respiration involve the breakdown of glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm, while cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Overall, both processes are essential for generating ATP to power cellular activities.


Why do multicellular organisms need to use more energy?

A multicellular organism can not rely on glycolysis alone for energy because glycolysis is just one step in respiration. Glycolysis alone does not produce the amount of oxygen that a multicellular organism needs.


Where the energy of glucose ends up?

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.

Why has seal hunting become a difficult and sensitive issue?

Because it has become much more easy to just use the fat of fat people instead of babysealfat in the industries. Why would you waste such a cute little babyseal when you could just use fat people instead?


What is the net gain of ATP molecule through glycolysis?

Just two.Four are produced by substrate level phosphorylation but two ATP are needed in the energy investment phase of glycolysis.


What are all the substrates of glycolysis?

Substrates are the products of enzyme activity when metabolism occurs. For example: with glycolysis hydrogen is a substrate that is carried to the electron transport chain by NAD and FAD which then become NADH and FADH with the added hydrogen. I am just a student though, i was looking for the same answer. Just know what is produced as a result of a particular reaction and you will have your substrates. Shane
