Aerobic respiration takes place in presence of oxygen; whereas anaerobic respiration takes place in absence of oxygen.
.Carbon dioxide and water are the end products of aerobic respiration, while alcohol is the end product of anaerobic respiration.
.Aerobic respiration releases more energy than anaerobic respiration.
.The similarities between aerobic and anaerobic respiration, is that they both use glucose as the starting molecule. This is called the substrate.
.In addition, both aerobic and anaerobic respiration produce ATP, however, aerobic respiration produces a lot more ATP compared to anaerobic respiration.
.Food is oxidized in both cases and energy is released.
. The thin membranous skin is allows the respiratory gases to readily diffuse directly down their gradients between the blood vessels and the surroundings. When the frog is out of the water, mucus glands in the skin keep the frog moist, which helps absorb dissolved oxygen from the air.
