Question

cellular respiration consumes glucose during glycolysis. what product of glycolysis can be subsequently modified to enter the citric acid cycle under aerobic conditions?
pyruvate
lactic acid
acetyl - coa
nad+
atp

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into pyruvate. Under aerobic conditions, pyruvate is converted to acetyl - CoA which enters the citric acid cycle. Lactic acid is a product of anaerobic glycolysis. NAD+ and ATP are also products of glycolysis but not the ones that directly enter the citric acid cycle after modification.

Answer:

pyruvate
