Glycolysis
Splitting of glucose: yield of 2 pyruvate molecules
from one glucose molecule. (Also H2O.)
ATP invested in early steps, energy generated in later
steps. Net energy yield: 2 ATP, 2 NADH + 2 H+.

Krebs Cycle
Transition step required after pyruvate enters
mitochondrion; pyruvate converted to Acetyl
CoA. (NAD+ reduced to NADH during this
process.)
Krebs cycle doesnt directly need oxygen, but
wont occur without it.
Krebs cycle involves decarboxylation, oxidation
to generate NADH, FADH2, ATP. CO2 is
byproduct of these steps.
NADH, FADH2 will relay electrons to electron
transport chain.

Redox reactions
Many energy transfers involve transfer of
electrons (or hydrogen atoms).
Oxidation and reduction occur together.
