actually there are four fates of pyruvate.. usually under aerobic conditions it is converted to acetyl co a. and under anerobic conditions it is converted to lactate. it may also b converted to alanine and oxaloactate by enzymes alt and pyruvate carboxlyse respectively
energy
The glycolytic pathway is common to both fermentation and cellular respiration. During the course of the metabolic pathway, glucose is broken down to pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen, the pyruvate molecule becomes involved in the TCA cycle. In the absence of oxygen however, fermentation occures. The process is brought about by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase.

Metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate and a small amount of ATP anaerobicly
Glycolysis is a metabolic pathway that is responsible for breaking down glucose into two products: pyruvate and ATP. Pyruvate is an end product of glycolysis and is an important intermediate compound in the metabolic pathway. It can be further metabolized to produce various end products such as acetyl-CoA lactate ethanol and carbon dioxide. ATP on the other hand is the energy currency of the cell and is formed through the process of glycolysis. The two products made after glycolysis are: Pyruvate ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)Pyruvate is a carbohydrate end product of glycolysis and is an important intermediate compound in the metabolic pathway.

Glycolysis
In Glycolysis the Glucose under goes several process and finally they obtain pyruvate. We have 4 ATP and 2 NADH in this pathway. The pathway was given below.

Yes. Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis. This molecule contains three carbons. For every molecule of glucose that enters the glycolytic pathway, two molecules of pyruvate are formed

This is the Glycolysis pathway Glycolysis (the breakdown of glucose to pyruvate and lactate, occurs in the cell cytoplasm): Glucose + 2 ATP + 4 ADP + 2 NAD -> 2 Pyruvate + 2 ADP + 4 ATP + 2 NADH + energy. Oxidation of glucose is known as glycolysis. Glucose is oxidized to either lactate or pyruvate. Under aerobic conditions, the dominant product in most tissues is pyruvate and the pathway is known as aerobic glycolysis. When oxygen is depleted, as for instance during prolonged vigorous exercise, the dominant glycolytic product in many tissues is lactate and the process is known as anaerobic glycolysis. "These studies demonstrate that orderly glycolysis in the erythrocyte is regulated by the NAD-to-NADH ratio and also provide a method that makes possible the in vitro study of erythrocyte glycolysis." The conversion of pyruvate to lactate, under anaerobic conditions, provides the cell with a mechanism for the oxidation of NADH (produced during the G3PDH reaction) to NAD which occurs during the LDH catalyzed reaction. This reduction is required since NAD is a necessary substrate for G3PDH, without which glycolysis will cease. Normally, during aerobic glycolysis the electrons of cytoplasmic NADH are transferred to mitochondrial carriers of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway generating a continuous pool of cytoplasmic NAD NADH
Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that turns glucose into pyruvate and can also produce glucose FROM pyruvate when working in reverse. The major details of this pathway were illuminated largely by three men: Jakub Karol Parnas, Gustav Embden, and Otto Meyerhof. Of these men, only Meyerhof would receive a Nobel Prize.
This is called the glycolysis pathway. It begins with glucose and ends with pyruvate before entering the Krebs cycle where ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is generated for energy.
