What happens if oxygen is not present during glycolysis?

The body uses lysosomes to destroy pyruvate, and cellular respiration stops.
Pyruvate undergoes fermentation, and lactic acid is produced.
Pyruvate is turned back into glucose until oxygen becomes available again.
Pyruvate enters the Krebs cycle, which leads to the production of ATP molecules.
