a-each pyruvate molecule has a CO2 added and then joins with an NADH
b-each pyruvate loses a carbon atom, which is released as CO2
c-2 pyruvate molecules together contain less chemical energy than was found in the original glucose molecule
d- the pyruvate molecules are oxidized and 2 NAD+ are reduced
e- 2 molecules of pyruvate are each converted into two-carbon molecules joined to a coenzyme A molecule.
Thanks!
