Understanding the Anaerobic Glycolysis Map
Anaerobic glycolysis is the breakdown of one glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules without oxygen. It takes place in the cytoplasm and has two phases: an energy investment phase and an energy payoff phase. Under anaerobic conditions, pyruvate is then reduced to lactate or ethanol so that NAD+ is regenerated.
- Investment phase: steps using two ATP to phosphorylate glucose and split fructose.
- Payoff phase: steps producing ATP and NADH from the three-carbon intermediates.
- Key enzymes: hexokinase, phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase control the rate.
- Net yield: two ATP and two NADH per glucose molecule.
- Fermentation: lactate or ethanol production in the absence of oxygen.
Use the map to revise each stage, then check which enzymes and products belong to each branch. CogniGuide can build a personalized glycolysis map from your own notes, so your revision matches your course.

Anaerobic Glycolysis Questions
Common questions about the pathway and how to map it.
What is the net ATP yield of anaerobic glycolysis?
Glycolysis uses two ATP in the investment phase and produces four ATP in the payoff phase, so the net gain is two ATP per glucose molecule. Two NADH are also produced.
Where does anaerobic glycolysis take place in the cell?
All ten steps of glycolysis occur in the cytoplasm. The process does not require mitochondria or oxygen, which is why it can run in muscle cells during intense exercise.
Can I make a glycolysis mind map from my own lecture notes?
Yes. Upload a PDF, Word file, PowerPoint or text file, and CogniGuide turns it into an interactive map you can expand and edit.
Can the map be turned into a quiz?
Yes. Once the map is created, you can turn it into a quiz to test your knowledge of the pathway. There is a free plan with 5 creations a week.
