During cellular respiration, when pyruvic acid is produced through glycolysis, the main additional products are ATP, NADH, and some hydrogen ions. However, since the options provided are limited, the most relevant choice from your list would be heat. This is because cellular respiration is not 100% efficient and some energy is lost as heat.

So, the correct answer from your options is:

heat
