Hi there,

I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy!

The answer is: Acetyl - CoA

So basically Glycolysis is the process by which glucose is broken down within the cytoplasm of a cell to form pyruvate. Then under aerobic conditions, pyruvate can diffuse into Mitochondria and then convert to Acetyl-CoA as aerobic metabolism continue.

Please leave 5 stars and a like if you find this answer helpful.

Happy to help!
