Front

What are the net products of glycolysis?

Back

2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate, and 2 H2O.

Front

Which molecule acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain?

Back

Oxygen.

Front

What is the net gain of ATP from glycolysis?

Back

2 ATP.

Front

Which of the following is not produced during glycolysis: ATP, NADH, FADH2?

Back

FADH2.

Front

Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?

Back

In the cytoplasm.

Front

What is the primary purpose of glycolysis?

Back

To convert glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH in the process.

Front

What is the role of NAD+ in glycolysis?

Back

NAD+ acts as an electron carrier, being reduced to NADH.

Front

What is the significance of the energy investment phase in glycolysis?

Back

It requires 2 ATP to phosphorylate glucose and its intermediates, preparing them for energy extraction.

Front

What are the two main phases of glycolysis?

Back

Energy investment phase and energy payoff phase.

Front

How many molecules of pyruvate are produced from one molecule of glucose during glycolysis?

Back

Two molecules of pyruvate.
