Biology textbooks often state that 38 ATP molecules can be made per oxidized glucose molecule during cellular respiration (2 from glycolysis, 2 from the Krebs cycle, and about 34 from the electron transport system).
Aerobic Cellular respiration: Up to 36 additional ATP molecules can be yielded from 1 molecule of glucose.
Cellular respiration total:up to 38 molecules of ATP cam be yielded.
For every molecule of glucose that is metabolized in aerobic respiration, there is a gain of 38 ATP molecules.
Six oxygen are needed for every glucose molecule are required for cellular respiration. 34-36 ATP are also produced.

Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation
3/4 of the ATP is made in respiration To build on the original answer: 36 ATP are produced from glycolosis to Electron Chain Transport with oxygen being the final electron acceptor. Some sources cite that anywhere between 28 and 36 ATP are produced but if you plan on taking the MCAT if this question is asked the answer is 36.
Their starting compound are different because fermentation takes in 2NAD+ and 2ADP molecules and changes them into 2NADH and 2ATP and 2 pyruvic acid molecules, while cellular respiration takes in electrons through electron carriers. What was this guy thinking when he made this answer....
the energy released in respiration is channeled into molecules of ATP

NADH. In oxidative phosphorylation, for every NADH, around 2.5 ATP molecules are made, and for every FADH2 about 1.5 ATP molecules are made.

This is not photosynthesis It is the byproduct that is made when you do aerobic work in your skeletal muscles

Cellular respiration is more efficient than fermentation. Cellular respiration produces approximately 36-38 ATP molecules, while fermentation produces only 2 ATP, which is a significant loss in usable energy.
After glycolysis and Kreb cycle, the third process is the electron transport chain, from where the most ATP are made.
Glycolysis is a 10 step enzymatically catalyzed reaction which splits up a glucose molecule into two molecules of pyruvate. The process of glycolysis can occur in absence of oxygen. A net yield of 2 ATP is obtained at the end of gylcolysis for every molecule of glucose oxidized.

Cells produce more ATP under aerobic conditions because aerobic means that you need air and ATP needs air to operate so i made sence that cells would make more ATP under aerobic conditions.
In Cellular Respiration, there are two ways of making ATP: Aerobic and Anaerobic. These processes occur in the Mitochondria. The first step of Aerobic Respiration is anaerobic (Yes, it's a bit confusing). This step is called Glycolysis, the process of turning Glucose into Pyruvate Acids, NADP, and ADP. From here is where Aerobic Respiration occurs if there is oxygen present. It goes on into Citric Acid Cycle, where it adds Hydrogen ions to the NADP, FAD, and ADP to make high-energy molecules. Next is the Electron Transport Chain, where the rest of the ATP is made. In all, around 36 ATP is made.
