Explanation:

The similarity between aerobic and anaerobic respiration is that both break down the food to release carbon dioxide and energy. Food is broken down in the presence of oxygen. The end products are water, carbon dioxide and energy.

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:

Hey mate!

Similarities:

(i) In both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, food is broken down to release energy.

(ii) Both take place inside cells.

(iii) Both produce byproducts.

(iv) Carbon dioxide is produced in both reactions.

(v) Energy is released in both reactions.

Differences:

  • Aerobic respiration :

(i) Aerobic respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen.

(ii) Complete breakdown of food occurs in aerobic respiration.

(iii) The end products in aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water.

(iv) Aerobic respiration produces a considerable amount of energy.

  • Anaerobic respiration :

(i) Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen.

(ii) Partial break down of food occurs in anaerobic respiration.

(iii) The end products in anaerobic respiration are ethanol and carbon dioxide (in yeast) and lactic and (in animal muscles).

(iv) Much less energy is produced in anaerobic respiration.

Hope this helps :)
