검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand the overall process of glycolysis: one molecule of glucose (6 carbons) is converted into two molecules of pyruvate (3 carbons each).
Identify the ATP investment phase: during the early steps of glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules are consumed to phosphorylate glucose and its intermediates.
Identify the ATP payoff phase: later steps generate ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation, producing 4 ATP molecules in total (2 ATP per pyruvate).
Calculate the net ATP production by subtracting the ATP invested from the ATP produced: Net ATP = ATP produced - ATP consumed.
Conclude that the net ATP yield from glycolysis per glucose molecule is 2 ATP.
