Question

what is the net gain of atp during glycolysis? 4 2 6 3

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose. In glycolysis, 2 ATP molecules are used in the initial steps (investment phase), and 4 ATP molecules are produced in the later steps (payoff phase). To find the net gain, we calculate the production minus the investment: \( 4 - 2 = 2 \). So the net gain of ATP during glycolysis is 2.

Answer:

2 (corresponding to the option with "2")
