And that's why the long search for a high-energy chemical intermediate (a molecule able to transfer the energy from the oxidation of glucose to form ATP) was doomed to failure. In place of such an ...

Two ATP molecules are synthesized in the cytoplasm via the conversion of glucose molecules to pyruvate. Both the apparatus (enzymes) and the physical environment necessary for the oxidation of ...

Oxidation of glucose Complete Incomplete. The products of respiration still contain energy. Products of respiration Carbon dioxide and water. The products do not contain stored chemical energy ...

Presence of oxygen Present. Absent or in short supply. Oxidation of glucose Complete Incomplete. The products of respiration still contain energy. Products of respiration Carbon dioxide and water.
