Cellular respiration does not oxidize glucose Cellular respiration does not oxidize glucose in a single step that transfers all the in a single step that transfers all the hydrogen in the fuel to oxygen at one time.hydrogen in the fuel to oxygen at one time.

Rather, glucose and other fuels are broken Rather, glucose and other fuels are broken down gradually in a series of steps, each down gradually in a series of steps, each catalyzed by a specific enzymecatalyzed by a specific enzyme
