Question: what is glycolysis what are the key substrates and products?
Answer: Glycolysis. Glycolysis metabolizes glucose and rapidly produces a small amount of ATP as well as acid, pyruvate, and NADH that can feed into the Krebs cycle. The overall reaction is. Glucose + 2 ADP + 2 Pi + 2 NAD+ → 2 pyruvate + 2 ATP + 2 NADH + 2 H+ + 2 H2O.
