a little less
zero
much more
the same amount of
much less
Brief Explanations
Aerobic respiration produces a large amount of ATP (up to 38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule through glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation). Fermentation, which is an anaerobic process, only produces 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule during glycolysis. So fermentation produces much less ATP compared to aerobic respiration.
