Q

What happens during glycolysis?

A

Glycolysis is the first stage of cellular respiration of both aerobic and anaerobic: fermentation

This process occurs in the abscence of oxygen

2 NADH and 2 ATP are formed

Q

What happens during the Link Reaction stage?

A

In the presence of oxygen, glucose is converted into 2 pyruvate molecules and they enter the mitochondria converting into AcetylCoA
