Question

Distinguish the below given properties into aerobic respiration & anaerobic respiration: (3)

1. Respiration seen in yeast.

2. Breakdown of food with the use of oxygen.

3. Production of lactic acid at the end of respiration.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Aerobic RespirationAnaerobic RespirationOxygen is present when this form of respiration takes place.Oxygen is absent when this form of respiration takes place.Gases are exchanged in this form of respiration.Gases are not exchanged in this form of respiration.It can be found in the cytoplasm and the mitochondria.It can be found only in the cytoplasm.Glucose breaks down into carbon dioxide and water.Glucose breaks down into ethyl alcohol, carbon dioxide and energy.All higher organisms such as mammals have this type of respiration.Lower organisms such as bacteria and yeast use this type. In other organisms, it occurs during heavy activities.

Explanation:

Aerobic respiration is a fixed metabolic reaction that takes place in the presence of oxygen, going on in a cellular to transform chemical energy into ATPs. Anaerobic respiration is a process of cellular respiration in which the excessive energy electron acceptor is neither oxygen nor pyruvate derivatives.
