Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Under anaerobic conditions, glycolysis produces 2 molecules of ATP, 2 molecules of water, and 2 molecules of lactate (or ethanol and carbon dioxide in yeast). This process does not produce a net gain of NADH in the cytosol; instead, NAD+ is regenerated from NADH when pyruvate is reduced to lactate, allowing glycolysis to continue.
