Much less energy is released duringanaerobic respiration than duringaerobic respiration. This is because the breakdown of glucose is incomplete. Anaerobic respirationproduces an oxygen debt. This is the amount of oxygen needed to oxidise lactic acid to carbon dioxide and water

Aerobic respiration is far more energy efficient than anaerobic respiration. In aerobic respiration, the breakdown of glucose is Complete and produce more energy.
Aerobic processes produce up to 38 ATP per glucose.
Anaerobic processes yield only 2 ATP per glucose.
