Question

differentiate between aerobic and anaerobic respiration​

Answer 1

Answer:

Aerobic respiration is a set of metabolic reactions that take place in the presence of oxygen, occurring in a cell to convert chemical energy into ATPs. Anaerobic respiration is a process of cellular respiration where the high energy electron acceptor is neither oxygen nor pyruvate derivatives.

Answer 2

Aerobic Respiration

• It occurs in the presence of oxygen.
• Glucose is completely oxidized.
• End products are carbon dioxide and water.
• more energy is produced.
• it occurs in most of the plants and animals.

Anaerobic Respiration

• it occurs in absence of oxygen.
• glucose is oxidised in completely.
• end products are either alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide.
• very little energy is produced.
• it occurs in few organisms like yeast, bacteria and some parasitic flatworms.
