Solution

The correct option is C 4 ATP
Substrate level phosphorylation is the process of formation of ATP by direct transfer of a phosphoryl group to ADP. In glycolysis, four molecules of ATP is formed by one glucose molecule in payoff phase. Two molecule of 1,3 biphosphoglycerate converts into two 3- phosphoglycerate by producing two ATP and phosphoenolpyruvate changes into pyruvate by producing two ATP.
