The breaking down of sugars is called glycolysis. The prefix glyco- means sugar, and the suffix -lysis means breaking down. It's part of a three-step process in respiration, the other two is The Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport Phosphorylation. In the process of glycolysis, 2 ATP and 2 NADH are produced.
