Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Thus a total of 2 ATPs are generated from the fermentation of a glucose molecule.
Detailed explanation-2: -An electron transport system is not involved in fermentation, and no ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is created directly by the fermentation process. Fermenters make very little ATP-only two ATP molecules per glucose molecule-during glycolysis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, two glucose molecules can generate 76 ATP molecules.
