The end product of glycolysis is
Correct answer: B. Pyruvate
- A. Glucose
- B. Pyruvate
- C. Acetyl CoA
- D. CO2
Explanation

About Cellular Respiration
Cellular respiration releases energy from glucose through glycolysis, the link reaction, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain, producing ATP. The pathway differs in oxygen availability: aerobic respiration uses oxygen and yields more ATP, while anaerobic respiration produces much less ATP and forms lactic acid in muscles or ethanol and carbon dioxide in yeast.
