Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Glycolysis produces only two net molecules of ATP per 1 molecule of glucose.
Detailed explanation-2: -Net ATP production when one molecule of glucose is fermented to alcohol or lactic acid: When glucose ferments, there is a net gain of two ATP molecules in the glycolysis process.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer. Explanation: Glycolysis requires two moles of ATP to split one mole of glucose. However, glycolysis subsequently produces four moles of ATP, resulting in net gain of two moles of ATP for each mole of glucose.
