Abstract
Glycolysis is one of the two main pathways of carbohydrate degradation in most animal and plant tissues. The term glycolysis is generally considered to mean the anaerobic breakdown of reserve polysaccharide (eg. starch, glycogen), hexoses or hexose phosphates to pyruvate via the Embden-Meyehhof-Pabnas (EMP) pathway. The pyruvate formed may be completely oxidized by the citric acid cycle or converted to lactic acid or ethanol and CO2.
