Correct Answer: Pyruvic acid


Solution : The correct option is Pyruvic acid

Glycolysis is a metabolic process that occurs in the cytoplasm of living cells. It is the process of converting glucose into pyruvate (pyruvic acid). It is the biological process that breaks down glucose to release energy. The final byproduct of anaerobic glycolysis is lactate (lactic acid), and the output of aerobic glycolysis is pyruvate (pyruvic acid). Two molecules of pyruvic acid, two molecules of ATP, and two molecules of NADH are the byproducts of glycolysis.
