To make ATP, you need adenosine diphosphate (ADP), inorganic phosphate (Pi), and energy in the form of either glucose in cellular respiration or light in photosynthesis. The process of ATP synthesis involves the enzyme ATP synthase and occurs in the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells or on thylakoid membranes in chloroplasts in plant cells.

In aerobic respiration, each molecule of glucose produces approximately 32 molecules of ATP. Therefore, to make 6000 molecules of ATP, you would need 6000/32 = 187.5 molecules of glucose. However, since you cannot have a fraction of a molecule, you would need 188 molecules of glucose to produce 6000 molecules of ATP in aerobic respiration.
During glycolysis, the conversion of glucose to pyruvate generates a total of 4 ATP molecules. However, it requires 2 ATP molecules to initiate the process, resulting in a net gain of only 2 ATP molecules. This occurs because energy is both consumed and produced at various steps of the glycolytic pathway.
One molecule of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is typically needed to jump start glycolysis by phosphorylating glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate. This step primes glucose for further breakdown in glycolysis.
Two molecules of ATP are needed to start the process of glycolysis. These ATP molecules are used to prime the glucose molecule for further breakdown and energy production.

Approximately 288 molecules of glucose are needed to produce 300 molecules of ATP in aerobic respiration. This is because one molecule of glucose yields around 36-38 molecules of ATP through glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation in the mitochondria.

You would need 50 molecules of glucose to net 1800 ATP molecules in aerobic respiration. This number can be found by dividing 36 net ATP created by glucose with 1800.

A single molecule of glucose produces up to 36 ATP molecules through aerobic respiration. Therefore, to produce 1800 ATP molecules, you would need 50 molecules of glucose.
Carbohydrate, lipids, or proteins can be broken down to make ATP. Carbohydrates are the molecules most commonly broken down to make ATP.
