Glycolysis (RESPIRATION)

?
How many ATP are made in total?
4 are made but 2 are used to break up glucose so a net of 2
1 of 7
Why is glucose split?
To gain energy from it's release and break it down to be turned into ATP/ energy
2 of 7
Where does glycolysis occur?
Cytoplasm of cell
3 of 7
Why does ATP bind to glucose?
To stop it leaving cell and release energy to split it
4 of 7
How many NADH are made and why?
2 per glucose molecule to remove the hydrogen ions from the enzyme dehudrogenase
5 of 7
How are co-enzymes involved?
coenzymes, like NAD+ remove 2H+ ions per molecule aiding in the process
6 of 7
How does oxidation occur in glycolysis?
H+ ions are lost to NAD+ so it loses electrons dispite not having lost oxygen
