In glycolysis, which involves the breaking down of 1 molecule of 6 carbon glucose to 2 molecules of 3 carbon called pyruvic acid by enzymes in the cytoplasm, 2 ATPs are formed
The kreb’s cycle involves a series of reactions which begins with the pyruvic acid formed during glycolysis which takes place in the mitochondria in the presence of oxygen.At various stages, carbon dioxide and hydrogen are produced and the hydrogen released combines with oxygen to form water.During the entire process involved in the kreb’s cycle, large amounts of energy is released to the cell for use in form of ATP with a total net of 36 ATPs
The entire breakdown of glucose molecules from glycolysis to kreb’s cycle provides a total net of 38 ATPs.
