GLYCOLYSIS

Glycolysis which is the path~way for the breakdown of carbohydrates is been found occuring in most animals and plants,likewise in many bacteria.
It can also be said to be the splitting of sugar and this process results in the cleavage of the Hexose molecule into two 3-Carbon fragments.
The function of the occurence of this glycolysis in many cells is the conversion of carbohydrates to pyruvate.
Glycolysis gives two pyruvate molecules per glucose, in addition to two ATPs from the substrate-level phosphorylation and further four ATPs.
'An important function of the glycolysis is to synthesizf the ATP from the ADP'.
The first two reactions of each, uses an ATP for every molecule of glucose metabolized, whereas the other reactions each generates two ATP molecules for every glucose used.
So all cells uses ATP for this purpose and couple reactions such as glycolysis to the synthesis of ATP from ADP.....
