Glycolysis is a process involving 10 reactions that convert glucose to pyruvate.

Glycolysis is a series of metabolic reactions that take place in the cytoplasm of the cell to extract energy from glucose.

Glycolysis is anerobic pathway (does not require oxygen).

Glycolysis is a process involving reactions that convert glucose to pyruvate. During glycolysis one glucose molecule is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate in the cytoplasm. The process creates two pyruvates molecules, two molecules of ATP are used, however, four are created making the net energy produced to be two molecules of ATP.
