differentiate between aerobic and anaerobic respiration
Answers
Explanation:
Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. ... This process requires oxygen and therefore following anaerobic respiration there is oxygen debt in the cell, as oxygen is needed to break down the lactic acid produced.
The difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration are :-
1. The respiration which takes place in presence of oxygen is known as aerobic respiration whereas the respiration which takes place in absent of oxygen is known as anareobic respiration.
2. In the aerobic complete broke down of glucose takes place whereas incomplete broke down takes place in case of anaerobic respiration.
3. More energy produce in case of aerobic respiration but less energy produce in case of anaerobic respiration.
4. The product of aerobic respiration is carbondioxide whereas the product of anaerobic respiration is ethanol.
5. Aerobic Occurs in mitochondria of a cell but anaerobic occurs in cytoplasm of a cell.
