Glycolysis

A

Overall glucose is oxidized into two molecules of pyruvate, 2 atp used, 4 atp made, 2 Nad+ molecules reduced to nadh, occurs in the cytosol, does not require energy

Q

Pyruvate Oxidation

A

Pyruvate is oxidized into Acetyl CoA, no atp is produced or used, 2 molecules of NAD+ are reduced to NADH, occurs in the mitochondria, pyruvate enters the mitochondria via active transport, gives of 2 molecules of C02

Q

Citric Acid Cycle

A

Citric acid cycle continues the oxidation of glyucose (Starting from acetyl CoA), Generates most of the NADH and FADH2, releases C02
