How do aerobic respiration and fermentation compare with respect to the efficiency of energy production?

produces 34-36 ATP depending on efficiency. Fermentation doesn’t produce any new ATP. However glycolysis which precedes both aerobic respiration and fermentation produces a net gain of 2ATP.

Note that the 2ATP of fermentation are from glycolysis.
