Which process in the aerobic metabolism of glucose takes place in the cytosol?

Glycolysis

Which process in the metabolism of glucose is NOT part of aerobic metabolism?

Glycolysis

What happens to oxygen when it functions as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport system?

It becomes part of a water molecule.
