Biology

During glycolysis, one molecule of glucose (a six-carbon sugar) is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate (a three-carbon sugar), releasing a small amount of ATP and NADH.

The other options are incorrect:

Acetyl-CoA is produced later in cellular respiration during the transition from glycolysis to the Krebs cycle (after pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria).
