photosynthesis when examining its formula: C6H1206 + 602 → 6CO2 + 6H20 + ATP. However, it is much more complex and it involves many different stages. For one, glycolysis is the conversion of glucose into pyruvate. More specifically, it begins with a six carbon hexose sugar that phosphorylates, acquiring two phosphates--usually from ATP that is used in order to initiate this process. This then is split evenly (a phosphate and 3 carbon each) into triose phosphates. After oxidation occurs, hydrogen…
