Verified step by step guidance

Understand that metabolic pathways are series of chemical reactions occurring within a cell to maintain life.

Recognize that glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH.

Note that glycolysis is an anaerobic process, meaning it does not require oxygen, and thus can occur in both aerobic and anaerobic organisms.

Identify that glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration and is present in all organisms, from simple bacteria to complex multicellular organisms.

Conclude that glycolysis is the only metabolic pathway listed that is universally found in all living organisms, highlighting its essential role in energy production.
