IIA b the products are Lactate or Ethanol depending on the organisms.
in the absence of oxygen the process pyruvate goes through is fermentation either latctate fermentation or ethanol fermentation and it occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.
In presence of Oxygen the pyruvate would go through aerobic cellular respiration or TCA cycle.
Pyruvate bonds with oxaloacetate to form the acetyl coA.
The reaction occurs in the mitochondria of the cell.
The excess carbon is bonded to O2 to form the CO2 the metabolic waste product.
Acetyl CoA can now enter into the TCA cycle.
The 2 molecules of NADH produced in this step goes to the electron transport chain to ultimately help in the formation of ATP.
