This is only half of the picture!
In glycolysis only two ATP's are produced because when glucose is converted to Glucose 6-phosphate, hexokinase requires ATP (first step). On the third step of glycolysis when fructose 6-phosphate gets converted by phosphofructokinase(PFK) into fructo 1,6-biphosphate it als requires ATP. As of now you have used 2 ATP molecules.
after the splitting into glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate you start producing ATP when you convert 1,3-biphosphoglycerate into 3- phosphoglycerate, for a total of 2 ATP ( because you have two molecules of 1,3 biphophoglycerate). You also gain 2 more ATP's on the final step converting phosphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate (because you have 2 molecules of Phosphenolpyruvate)
In summation, you use 2 molecule but you gain 4 molecules which means thay you ultimately have 2 ATP at the end of glycolysis.(2-4=2)
but if you keep looking glycolysis produces 2 NADH (for the electron transport chain) and 2 pyruvate molecules for Krebs cycle.
The transition step makes 2 NADH when converting pyruvate into Acetyl-Coenzyme A.
Also, it produces 2 NADH from the conversion of D-isocitrate into alpha- ketogluterate and again from alpha-ketogluterate into succinyl-Coenzyme A.
and finally when convertin Malate into Ox aloacetate. for a total of 6 NADH
Also 2 GTP's are produced by the conversion of succinyl-Coenzyme A into succinate.
finally, you also produce 2 FADH molecules.
Now all the FADH and NADH go to the ETC
This is where the brunt of the energy is made.
Each FADH molecule produces 2 ATP and each NADH produces 3 ATP... this added witht the glycolysis ATP equals 36 ATP produced by a single molecule of Glucose. (10NADH(3ATP) +2 FADH(2ATP)+ 2 ATP)

Approximately 288 molecules of glucose are needed to produce 300 molecules of ATP in aerobic respiration. This is because one molecule of glucose yields around 36-38 molecules of ATP through glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria.
Each glucose molecule contains 6 carbon atoms. Thus we need 18 molecules of CO2 to make 3 molecules of glucose.
There are 2 FAD and NAD and molecules. This is to breakdown each glucose molecule.
Three molecules of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (G3P) are needed to synthesize one molecule of glucose in the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis.

Two monosaccharides are needed to form one maltose molecule. Specifically, maltose is comprised of two glucose molecules joined together through a condensation reaction, which releases a molecule of water.

It occurs 2x per glucose molecules.. But the thing is, I didn't know how that happen
