Question

Explain the process of aerobic respiration in mitochondrial of cell and anaerobic respiration in yeast

Answer 1

Answer:

Aerobic respiration is a process where large amount of energy is released from the breakdown of food substances.

Glucose-----→Pyruvate+Energy-----→6 water+carbon dioxide+38 ATP

Anaerobic respiration is a process where small amount of energy is released from the breakdown of food substances.

It is of two types:

1.Alcoholic Fermentation:The incomplete breakdown of sugar into ethanol and carbon dioxide to release energy is called Alcoholic Fermentation.Eg-In Yeast

Glucose-----→Pyruvate+Energy-----→2Ethanol+2 Carbon Dioxide+2ATP

2.Lactic Acid Fermentation:The incomplete breakdown of sugar into lactic acid and energy is called Lactic Acid Fermentation.Eg-In muscle Cells

Glucose----→Pyruvate+Energy--------→2Lactic Acid+2ATP.
