Energy is derived from adenosine tri-phosphate by breaking the molecular bonds in cellular respiration, look up citric acid cycle for further information.
ATP molecules.
It form chemical energy i.e. ATP (Adenosine Tri-phosphate)
The energy stored in 36 ATP molecules produced by aerobic respiration is equal to 39% of the energy available in six carbon glucose.
Nadh and ATP
ATP molecules carry energy, not genetic information. DNA carries genetic information. ATP does, however, contain a modified form of adenine, which is a base in DNA
The energy not used to make ATP molecules generates heat.
Two ATP molecules Two ATP molecules
The net gain of ATP molecules at the end of glycolysis is 2 ATP molecules. While 2 ATP molecules are consumed in the initial steps, a total of 4 ATP molecules are produced, resulting in a net gain of 2 ATP molecules.
ATP
Two molecules of ATP are consumed in the energy investment phase, while four molecules of ATP and two molecules of NADH are produced in the energy payoff phase. This results in a net gain of two molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose oxidized to pyruvate.

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) has the highest energy content among the three molecules. ATP is often referred to as the "energy currency" of the cell because it stores and provides energy for various cellular processes.

Nadh and ATP
The Krebs cycle releases energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecules. These ATP molecules are then used as a source of energy for cellular processes within the cells.
