Homework answers / question archive / C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6 H2O + energy The process of converting glucose into a form of energy (ATP) that is useable by cells Begins breakdown of glucose Occurs in the cytoplasm Breaks glucose molecule into 2 pyruvate molecules Also creates NADH from NAD+ Creates 2 ATP molecules Does not use oxygen The molecules created from the breakdown of glucose during glycolysis site of glycolysis contains enzymes necessary for glycolysis carrier molecule that brings H via NADH to the electron transport chain to create ATP carrier molecule that brings H via FADH2 to the electron transport chain to create ATP metabolic pathway that requires oxygen (glycolysis --> Kreb's --> ETC); complete breakdown of glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide and water metabolic pathway that does not use oxygen (glycolysis-->fermentation); breakdown of glucose into lactic acid or alcohol and CO2 AKA citric acid cycle occurs in the matrix of the mitochondrion completes the breakdown of glucose into carbon dioxide generates NADH and FADH2 that carry H to the electron transport chain creates 2 ATP
