Answer:

Major products of glycolysis include pyruvate, ATP , and NADH .

Glycolysis is the process by which glucose is converted to two molecules of pyruvate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Glycolysis occurs in nearly all living cell or organisms.

Glucose provide most of the energy used / produced by cells.

Glucose is the principal source and mainly used in glycolysis for production of energy for cellular metabolism

Products of glycolysis: glycolysis produces two molecules of pyruvate , net gain of two ATP(4-2) molecules, and two NADH molecules.

First half of glycolysis is known/ called as preparatory phase. In preparatory phase two molecules of ATP are consumed ,and the second half of glycolysis is pay-off phase, in which 4 molecules of ATP and 2 molecules of NADP are produced.
