Understanding Glycolysis: The Initial Step in Glucose Breakdown
Glycolysis, presented by Dr. Madhu Kumari Gupta, is a crucial process in cellular metabolism that involves the breakdown of glucose to extract energy. This pathway occurs in the cytosol and consists of three main phases - an energy-requiring phase, a splitting phase, and an energy-releasing phase. T
