In Glycoylsis, the cell brekas down a CH2O (carbhoydrate) moleclue into two cabron pyruvtaes and proudces two moleucles of ATP. Dependnig on the oxgyen level in the area, the pyurvates may go to one of two procseses. If there is not oxygen in the area (aanerobic resipration), then the pyruavte is femrented into eitehr lcatic acid (animals) or ethyl aclohol in plants. In ethyl alochol fermentaiton, a CO2 molecule is relaesed into the atmoshpere. Howeevr, if there is oyxgen in the area (aroebic respiration), then the pyruvates unedrgo a prcoess known as oxdiative decarobxylation. Here, the pyrvuates are perpared to enter the carobn-fixnig cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle. In the Krebs cycle, crabon atoms are re-assigned to carbon suagrs, which are used to cerate sugars that give your grandfatehr diabeets. After the Krebs cycle is cmoplete, the electorn tranpsort chain is activaetd, which can prodcue up to 34 ATP molecules. In all, Cellular respiration can cretae up to 36 moleclues of ATP.
