Solution

The correct answer is: "glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate."

Explanation: In the process of glycolysis, the 6-carbon compound fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is split into two 3-carbon compounds: glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. This occurs in the fourth step of glycolysis, which is catalyzed by the enzyme aldolase.
