Verified step by step guidance

Understand the process of glycolysis: Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate, releasing energy in the form of ATP.

Identify the main products of glycolysis: The primary products are ATP, NADH, and pyruvate. Carbon dioxide is not produced in glycolysis; it is a product of the citric acid cycle.

Recognize the role of ATP: ATP is the energy currency of the cell, and its production during glycolysis is crucial for cellular functions.

Consider the options given: Generation of carbon dioxide, synthesis of fatty acids, and consumption of oxygen are not direct features of glycolysis. Glycolysis does not require oxygen and does not produce carbon dioxide or fatty acids.

Conclude the beneficial feature: The production of ATP during glycolysis is beneficial to the cell as it provides energy for various cellular processes.
