1. |
It is a cyclic pathway. |
2. |
It occurs in the cell cytoplasm. |
2. |

3. |
It occurs in aerobic respiration only. |
4. |
Net Generation of 2 NADH+H+ and 2 ATP molecules occurs on the breakdown of one glucose molecule. |
4. |
It produces 6 NADH+H+, 2FADH2, and 2 ATP molecules on the breakdown of two acetyl-CoA molecules generated after glycolysis of one glucose molecule. |
