In aerobic respiration
energy is released during the oxidation process involving oxygen. In anaerobic respiration, atmospheric oxygen
is not involved. Some times when a
person does a lot of exercise or runs fast, then anaerobic respiration takes
place for a little while.
In anaerobic respiration energy is released
during the oxidation process involving oxidizing agents such as sulphates SO4,
Sulfur S, nitrates NO3 etc. The chemical reactions give out energy but less
compared to aerobic reactions. That is because
complete oxidation does not take place.
Energy is produced during the process called
glycolysis like in aerobic respiration. In this
respiration, ATP is synthesized from (ADP) Adenosine diphosphate and
inorganic phosphates. Energy is released also from Krebb's cycle by
oxidation of acetates from carbohydrates.
Many prokaryotes (anaerobic organisms) respire
only using anaerobic respiration.
Alcohol like ethanol is
produced from fermentation of food or drinks, as a result of anaerobic
respiration only.
It is possible that one
experiences some pain during anaerobic respiration.

anaerobic respiration articles:
Anaerobic respiration is a form of respiration using electron acceptors other than oxygen. Although oxygen is not used as the final electron acceptor, the process still uses a respiratory electron transport chain; it is respiration without oxygen.
In aerobic organisms undergoing respiration, electrons are shuttled to an electron transport chain, and the final electron acceptor is oxygen. Molecular oxygen is a highly oxidizing agent and, therefore, is an excellent acceptor. In anaerobes, other less-oxidizing substances such as sulfate (SO42−), nitrate (NO3−), sulphur (S), or fumarate are used. These terminal electron acceptors have smaller reduction potentials than O2, meaning that less energy is released per oxidized molecule. Anaerobic respiration is, therefore, in general energetically less efficient than aerobic respiration.
