Sounds like you don't want to do your work.

Library or Google time.

Nice try.

I have the majority of the info I need, I just am not sure whether or not I am on the right track with this.

1) sodium citrate I am not so sure about
2) iodoacetate: will alkylate the -SH group of a Cys residue a the active site of G3PDH, inactivating the enzyme. This inhibits G3P ---> 1,3-BPGa.
3) NaF: F- inhibits glycolysis by binding with PO4^3- to Mg^2+, forming a complex at the active site of the enzyme enolase, blocking 2-PGa from binding. Enzyme inhibited.
4) significance of less H2O availability? Can't seem to figure this one out.

[aerobic] glycolysis should be an easy easy easy research project, hell google may turn up a whole research paper.

Sodium citrate raises blood bicarbonate by a similar amount as sodium bicarbonate itself.

As far as H2O...I think the H2O gives the O2 for the reaction and without it probably less ATP will form.

Also I think the byproducts/waste are just CO2 and H2O....leaving out H2O in some degree may produce HCO (acid) of some variety as these are balanced in the end. Maybe this gives rise to lactic acid production or something along those lines.

Thanks for trying to help out, much appreciated. I think I've got it figured out now, though!
