Concept introduction:
Glycolysis: It is pathway which describes conversion of one molecule of glucose into 2
molecules. It involves totally 10 set of reactions with it.
Kinase: It is enzyme which serves as a catalyst in reaction of transferring phosphoryl group into the substrate.
Adenosine triphosphate ATP: The main job of ATP is to store energy and release it when cell is in need of energy.
Substrate: The molecule where the reaction takes place with help of enzymes.

Draw the mechanism for the third reaction in glycolysis—the reaction of fructose-6-phosphate with ATP to form fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.
Anaerobic glycolysis (i.e., lactic acid fermentation) produces pyruvate that is then converted to lactate through the activity of lactate dehydrogenase. The conversion of pyruvate to lactate would seem to be an unnecessary step, since this process does not result in any further release of energy. Explain the necessity for the production of lactate as the endpoint for anaerobic glycolysis.
Why does Glycolysis only release a small amount of the total available energy that can be harvested from glucose?
