Question

Differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration​

Answer 1

Answer:

Aerobic respirationrequires air wheareas anaerobic respiration doesnot require air

Answer 2

Answer:

Aerobic respiration :

1. Proceeds in the presence of oxygen.

2. Complete breakdown of glucose.

3. End products are carbon dioxide and water.

4. Energy released in large quantity (38 ATP) from one mole of glucose.

5. Occurs normally throughout life.

$C_6H_1_2O_6\;+\;6O_2\;\rightarrow\;6CO_2\;+\;6H_2O\;+\;38ATP$

Anaerobic respiration :

1. Proceed without using oxygen.

2. Incomplete breakdown of glucose.

3. End products are ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide.

4. Energy liberated in small quantity (2 ATP) from one mole of glucose.

5. Occurs temporarily for short periods.

$C_6H_1_2O_6\;\rightarrow\;2C_2H_5OH\;+\;6CO_2\;+\;2ATP$
