Summary Introduction

To explain:

The energy investment and energy harvesting phases of glycolysis.

Introduction:

The breakdown of glucose is carried out in two major processes: glycolysis and cellular respiration. Glucose breakdown starts in the cytosol of the cell through glycolysis and further proceeds to the cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen. Glycolysis involves the breakdown of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate in the presence of oxygen or lactate in the absence of oxygen.
