Which carbon-containing compound is the product of glycolysis
acetyl coa
glucose
lactic acidosis
pyruvate

Pyruvate.

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the break down of glucose. It involve various steps however the final product of glycolysis is pyruvate in aerobic respiration.

In anaerobic respiration pyruvate is converted into lactic acid or ethanol.

The second step of anaerobic respiration is fermentation. It involve the fermentation of pyruvate into lactic acid or alcohol depending upon the organism in which it is taking place. There is no ATP produced, however carbon dioxide is released in this step.

Anaerobic respiration in plants:

Anaerobic respiration in plants produced ethanol which if accumulate then cause the harmful effect in plants. It is also occur in some microorganisms such as yeast.

C₆H₁₂O₆  →   2C₂H₅OH  + 2CO₂

Anaerobic respiration in animals:

Anaerobic respiration in animals pyruvate converted into lactic acid and it is not as harmful as ethanol in plant if accumulate. It is produced during exercise. It can produce the cramps which can be cured with massage.

C₆H₁₂O₆  →   2C₃H₆O₃
