• Almost all cells will make use of glycolysis in order to start the breakdown process of glucose.

• There is a transition phase between glycolysis and the Krebs cycle.

• There is a difference between fermentation and anaerobic metabolism, with fermentation having specific end-products, such as lactic acid.

• The Krebs cycle can be done by anaerobes and aerobes.

• Most of the ATP is gotten through oxidative phosphorylation and the electron transport chain.

• Photosynthesis is not the opposite of glucose catabolism. It makes use of lightdependent reactions and light-independent reactions in order to make glucose.

• The Calvin cycle is a light-independent reaction cycle that makes glyceraldehyde3-phosphate.
