Question: how many total molecules of atp are produced during glycolysis. (not the net gain)?
Answer: Outcomes of Glycolysis Glycolysis produces 2 ATP, 2 NADH, and 2 pyruvate molecules: Glycolysis, or the aerobic catabolic breakdown of glucose, produces energy in the form of ATP, NADH, and pyruvate, which itself enters the citric acid cycle to produce more energy.
