Let's explore the process of glycolysis, the first phase of cellular respiration. Learn how this process breaks down glucose into two 3-carbon compounds, using two ATPs in the investment phase and generating a net of two ATPs in the payoff phase.

Dive into glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, and understand when each pathway dominates. Discover how the body maintains this balance using fast-acting regulation like Le Chatelier's Principle and slow-acting regulation through transcriptional changes.
Cellular respiration is how cells get energy from glucose. The process has three main parts: Glycolysis happens in the cytosol and breaks glucose into two pyruvate, producing 2 ATPs and 2 NADHs.
