Glycolysis represents the first step in respiration that proceeds Krebs’s cycle

Glycolysis (Bodner, pp.568-65) represents the first step in the respiration process and takes place in the cytosol. Glycolysis is an exothermic process that results in a release of chemical energy in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). Glycolysis represents the first step in respiration that proceeds Krebs’s cycle (Michaelidis & Storey, pp.155-9). During Glycolysis, Hexa-carbon sugar stability is decreased by ATP which paves way for the formation of NADH and the formation of a three-carbon sugar.
