Hello,
Have a look at this page of the wiki:

You might also want to understand the Krebs cycle of which glycolosis is a part.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citric_acid_cycle
The citric acid cycle is the third step in carbohydrate catabolism (the breakdown of sugars). Glycolysis breaks glucose (a six-carbon-molecule) down into pyruvate (a three-carbon molecule). In eukaryotes, pyruvate moves into the mitochondria. It is converted into acetyl-CoA by decarboxylation and enters the citric acid cycle.
