Glycolysis. During glycolysis, glucose is broken down in ten steps to two molecules of pyruvate, which then enters the mitochondria where it is oxidised through the tricarboxylic acid cycle to carbon dioxide and water. Glycolysis can be split into two phases, both of which occur in the cytosol.

Explanation:

Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol. The glycolytic pathway, glucose is broken down in ten steps to two molecules of pyruvate. The initial steps in glycolysis are to trap the glucose in the cell and cleaved into phosphorylated three- carbon units. Stage 2, is the conversion of the fructose 1,6-bisphosphate into two three-carbon fragments. These resulting three-carbon units are interconvertible. In stage 3, ATP is harvested when the three-carbon fragments are oxidized to pyruvate. The main transformation occurs one glucose molecule is converted into two pyruvate molecules, and 2 ATP molecule and 2 NADH molecules are released.

Yup!! After a long duration...... Mutations lead to evolution because if the mutation is favorable then it will survive and pass on its traits.

How could genetic variation affect new adaptations
kupik [55]

Hello, hope your having a good day :)

<em><u>How could genetic variation affect new adaptations?</u></em>

<em>Populations adapt to novel environments in two distinct ways: selection on pre-existing genetic variation and selection on new mutations. These alternative sources of beneficial alleles can result in different evolutionary dynamics and distinct genetic outcomes. Compared with new mutations, adaptation from standing genetic variation is likely to lead to faster evolution, the fixation of more alleles of small effect and the spread of more recessive alleles. </em>

<em>So you may be asking.... why? And how?</em>

<em>There is potential to distinguish between adaptation from standing variation and that from new mutations by differences in the genomic signature of selection. Here we review these approaches and possible examples of adaptation from standing variation in natural populations. Understanding how the source of genetic variation affects adaptation will be integral for predicting how populations will respond to changing environments.</em>
