Glycolytic pathway evolved very early in evolution. This is supported by the fact that:

1. The ATP production in glycolysis is much less than in oxidative phosphorylation.
2. It is found in the cytosol, does not involve oxygen, and is present in most organisms.
3. It is found in prokaryotic cells but not in eukaryotic cells.
4. It does not need any enzymes that evolved much later.
