During glycolysis, how many pyruvate molecules are generated from one molecule of glucose?
2
Which explanation BEST describes why there is only a NET gain of 2 ATP when 4 ATP molecules are generated from the glycolysis of one glucose molecule?
2 ATP are used in glycolysis to initially catabolize the glucose molecule

no ATP is produced
How many acetyl-CoA molecules are produced from the catabolism of one glucose molecule?
2
What molecule will pyruvate be converted to if there are inadequate amounts of oxygen in the cytoplasm?
lactic acid
What step of cellular respiration produces most of the high energy coenzyme molecules for the electron transport system?
