Answer:

Four (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Two ATP molecules are required to start glycolysis (from glucose), and four are generated by substrate-level phosphorylation. An additional two NADH molecules are generated, which can be used to generate another three to five ATP molecules through the electron transport chain in the mitochondria.
