The Warburg Effect: Cancer Cell Metabolic Rewiring (2D)

A 2D cross-section of a cell running two parallel, independently-rated metabolic pathways: cytosolic glycolysis (low yield, high rate ceiling) and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (high yield, low rate ceiling). Reallocate glucose between them with the Warburg-shift slider, tune each pathway's own capacity and the total glucose supply, and watch the live ATP-rate-vs-shift curve show the real crossover — the point where glycolysis's speed advantage starts outproducing oxidative phosphorylation's efficiency advantage, exactly the trade-off real cancer cells exploit.
