Krebs cycle |
Glycolysis |
Definition |
||
1. | A type of aerobic respiration or a tricarboxylic cycle where the pyruvate is converted Acetyl coenzyme A, Later it breakdown into CO2 and H2O and produces energy for the cells, this is known as Krebs cycle. | The process of reactions where glucose is converted into pyruvate and produces ATP in the presence of oxygen or Lactate, this is called as Glycolysis. |
ATP |
||
2. | ATP is not consumed. | ATP is consumed. |
Aerobic or Anaerobic respiration |
||
3. | Aerobic respiration. | Anaerobic respiration. |
Production |
||
4. | Here, two molecules of FADH2 and six molecules of NADH are produced. | Here, Two molecules of ATP and Two molecules of NADH, and two molecules of pyruvate are produced. |
Take place |
||
5. | The Krebs cycle process takes place inside the mitochondria. | The Glycolysis process takes place in the cytoplasm. |
End products |
||
6. | An inorganic carbon substance is the end product of this process. | An organic substance is the end product of this process. |
