Cellular respiration is a fundamental biological process that occurs in the cells of living organisms. It involves a series of metabolic reactions that convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which cells use for energy. One of the key stages of cellular respiration is glycolysis, which takes place in the cytoplasm.
In glycolysis, glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate. This process not only produces ATP but also generates reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). Which of the following statements correctly describes the net products of glycolysis?
