Anaerobic respiration is the process that allows an organism to make ATP where it needs it and can't use oxygen for it, like with organisms that find oxygen poisonous. Many types of anaerobic respiration exist, however, so the resulting ATP creation can vary.
ATP
Be it any organism, it requires energy to perform metabolic activities. Organisms oxidise small molecules and the energy released is stored in the form of phosphodiester bond of ATP. All the cells mantain a pool of ATP. When ever there is requirement of energy for any metabolic process, the ATP molecule is hydrolysed and the energy stored in the form of phosphodiester bond is liberated and could be utilized for the process. In almost all the metabolic processes ATP is the source of reserved energy. Rarely any other molecule (eg Creatinine Phophate is used) for this purpose.
Glycolysis itself is a process, which has many stages. It can occur throughout the cell using two ATP molecules.
An ATP-generating metabolic process that occurs in nearly all living cells in which glycolysisis converted in a series of steps to pyruvic acid.The metabolic breakdown of glucose and other sugars that releases energy in the form of ATP.
4, but two are used in the process, so there is a net gain of 2

A total of 38 ATP are generated but since it takes 2 ATP to begin the process, the get gain is 36 ATP.

In the first phase of glycolysis, the cell uses 2 ATP molecules. Then during the process of glycolysis, the cell produces 4 ATP molecules, making the net gain at 2 ATP molecules.

We all need energy to function. We get this energy from the foods we eat. The most efficient way for cells to harvest energy stored in food is through cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that captures the chemical energy from foods in the form of ATP. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria and consists of three stages. These stages are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and electron transport.
Glycolysis produces a net gain of 2 ATP molecules for each reaction
4, but two are used in the process, so there is a net gain of 2
Although four ATP are technically produced during glycolysis, it costs two to actually power the process so there is only a net gain of two ATP.
