Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason that each NADH produced by glycolysis in skeletal muscle fibers leads to the production of 2ATP molecules in the mitochondria, but each NADH produced by glycolysis in cardiac muscle cells leads to the production of 3ATP molecules.

Introduction:

Cellular respiration is the process of harvesting energy from the food. Cellular respiration is subdivided into three stages glycolysis, citric acid cycle and electron transport. The ATP is generated by the breakdown of glucose (carbohydrate) inside the mitochondria but the process of glycolysis takes place in the cytosol. The first stage is glycolysis which includes the breakdown of glucose molecule into pyruvic acid.
