(5a) What happens to the pyruvate under aerobic conditions?
(5b) What happens to the pyruvate under anaerobic conditions?

Answers
_oxidation_ of Glucose into _pyruvate__
Cellular respiration
Glycolysis (series of steps)
ATP currency of life
(1) addition of two phosphates to the glucose at the expense of two molecules of ATP
(2) The glucose -- 6 carbon sugar diphosphate molecule and 2 low energy adenosine diphosphates (ADP)
(3) it splits into two 3-carbon molecules (3 carbon sugar phosphate)
(4a) electron transport chain
(4b) NADH and ATP formed
(5a) further oxidized to yeild more ATP
(5b) Converted into lactic acid (think muscles)
