Respiration process that occurs in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration, generally seen among humans. But in certain organisms like bacteria and algae, respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen, called anaerobic respiration.
Explanation: It is happening in places where mitochondria are not present. In humans, red blood corpuscles do not have mitochondria, that's why anaerobic respiration always happens in RBCs. But in muscle cells, when there is a lack of oxygen, it happens as a result of the fact that lactic acid is produced.
