Question

glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration. which option best summarizes the process? (1 point) aerobic; 6 - carbon glucose forms three 2 - carbon pyruvates; forms a net total of 2 atp anaerobic; 6 - carbon glucose forms two 3 - carbon pyruvates; forms a net total of 2 atp aerobic; 6 - carbon glucose forms four 3 - carbon adp; forms a net total of 3 atp anaerobic; 6 - carbon glucose forms two 3 - carbon adp; forms a net total of 4 atp

Explanation:

Glycolysis is an anaerobic process where a 6 - carbon glucose molecule is broken down into two 3 - carbon pyruvate molecules, and a net total of 2 ATP is produced.

Answer:

anaerobic; 6 - carbon glucose forms two 3 - carbon pyruvates; forms a net total of 2 ATP
