ASSOCIATED READING: Campbell Biology (11th ed) pg 168-171; Figures 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9; Campbell Biology (10th ed) pg 166-169 (Figures 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9; OpenStax:
KEY WORDS: glycolysis, glucose, ATP, NADH, pyruvate, substrate-level phosphorylation
QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ANSWER:

What does the "energy investment phase" of glycolysis refer to?
After accounting for the ATP consumed during glycolysis, how many net ATP are produced per glucose?
Per glucose, how many NADH are produced?
What three-carbon molecule is produced by glycolysis? Hint: there are two of them.
Define substrate-level phosphorylation.
Does glycolysis require oxygen?
