Electron transport chains
Aerobic respiration releases much more energy than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration can result in as many as 38 molecules of ATP from one molecule of glucose, compared to a net gain of 2 molecules of ATP in anaerobic respiration.
Human cells get most of the energy they need from the process of aerobic cellular respiration which occurs in the mitochondria. Aerobic cellular respiration produces about 34 molecules of ATP.

Cellular RespirationSource: Holt Biology by Johnson Raven* Aerobic cellular respiration. Anaerobic cellular respiration yields a net gain of 2 ATP molecules for each glucose molecule broken down. Aerobic respiration yields a variable number, but always more than ten times as many ATP molecules.

There are many ways to product ATP. The most efficient way to produce ATP is Aerobic respiration, this produces 34 ATP molecules.

The glycolysis and the Krebs cycle uses the oxygen to break down the food molecules in order to release energy.
Fats produce the most ATP per gram. Fats because they are highly reduced compounds. Pats and proteins can be used as fuel in the cell because they can be converted to intermediates of glycolysis or the Krebs cycle.
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.
