This lesson describes glycolysis as the 1st stage of respiration and a source of triose phosphate, pyruvate, reduced NAD and ATP. The PowerPoint and accompanying resources have been designed to cover topic 3 point (b) of A2 unit 3 as detailed in the WJEC A-level biology specification.
The lesson divides this multi-step reaction into 3 key parts, which are phosphorylation of glucose, the splitting into triose phosphate and then the oxidation of triose phosphate to produce pyruvate, reduced NAD and ATP. The difference between the gross and net gain of ATP from glycolysis is explained as well as the importance of the reduced NAD for the electron transport system or the conversion of pyruvate to lactate.
As shown in the cover image, there are plenty of understanding checks to allow students to assess progress, and this includes several quick quiz rounds.
