  • What is produced during glycolysis?
    During glycolysis, pyruvate, ATP, and NADH are produced.
  • What is the main substrate in the first step of glycolysis?
    The main substrate in the first step of glycolysis is glucose.
  • Why is glycolysis described as having an energy investment phase and an energy payoff phase?
    Glycolysis is described this way because it initially consumes ATP to phosphorylate glucose (investment) and later produces a net gain of ATP and NADH (payoff).
  • Where does glycolysis take place within the cell?
    Glycolysis takes place within the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • Where does glycolysis take place in a cell?
    Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell.
  • During the energy investment phase of glycolysis, what occurs?
    During the energy investment phase, 2 ATP molecules are used to phosphorylate glucose and its intermediates.
  • Glycolysis produces a net gain of which of the following? Options: A) 2 ATP B) 4 ATP C) 2 NADH D) 2 Pyruvate
    A) 2 ATP
  • Where does the process of glycolysis occur?
    The process of glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm.
  • What happens to the end product of glycolysis?
    The end product of glycolysis, pyruvate, is transported to the mitochondria for further processing in aerobic respiration.
  • What is the end product of glycolysis?
    The end product of glycolysis is pyruvate.
  • The energy harvested in the later steps of glycolysis is in which two forms?
    The energy harvested is in the form of ATP and NADH.
  • What results from glycolysis?
    Glycolysis results in the production of pyruvate, ATP, and NADH.
  • What is the function of glycolysis?

  • How much energy is required in order for the energy investment step of glycolysis to work properly?
    The energy investment step of glycolysis requires 2 ATP molecules.
  • In what part of the cell does glycolysis occur?
    Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • Which of the following does not occur during glycolysis? Options: A) ATP production B) NADH production C) Oxygen consumption D) Pyruvate formation
    C) Oxygen consumption
  • The investment phase of glycolysis requires how many ATPs?
    The investment phase of glycolysis requires 2 ATPs.

  • What part of the cell does glycolysis occur?
    Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • Which molecules are made during glycolysis?
    During glycolysis, ATP, NADH, and pyruvate are made.
  • During glycolysis, what is the net gain of ATP?
    During glycolysis, the net gain is 2 ATP molecules.

    The net profit of ATPs for glycolysis is 2 ATP.
  • Where does glycolysis take place for us?
    Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of our cells.
  • What is the source of energy during the energy investment phase of glycolysis?
    The source of energy during the energy investment phase is ATP.
  • Where does glycolysis happen in the cell?
    Glycolysis happens in the cytoplasm of the cell.
  • Does glycolysis occur inside or outside the mitochondria?
    Glycolysis occurs outside the mitochondria, in the cytoplasm.
  • Where does the process of glycolysis take place?
    The process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm.
