to Glycolysis
The starting point for glycolysis is normally glucose although other monosacharides may be brought into the pathway.
The end product, in anaerobic conditions, depends on the organism. In higher organisms the end product is lactate whereas in some microorganisms (for example brewers yeast) it is ethanol and carbon dioxide.
