Question

List the similarities and differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The similarities between aerobic and anaerobic respiration, is that they both use glucose as the starting molecule. This is called the substrate. In addition, both aerobic and anaerobic respiration produce ATP, however, aerobic respiration produces a lot more ATP compared to anaerobic respiration

Answer 2

Answer:

Similarity:-

The similarities between aerobic and anaerobic respiration, is that they both use glucose as the starting molecule. This is called the substrate. In addition, both aerobic and anaerobic respiration produce ATP, however, aerobic respiration produces a lot more ATP compared to anaerobic respiration.

Differences:-

Aerobic Respiration

• Oxygen is present when this form of respiration takes place.
• Gases are exchanged in this form of respiration.
• It can be found in the cytoplasm and the mitochondria.
• Glucose breaks down into carbon dioxide and water.

Anaerobic Respiration

• Oxygen is absent when this form of respiration takes place.
• Gases are not exchanged in this form of respiration.
• It can be found only in the cytoplasm.
• Glucose breaks down into ethyl alcohol, carbon dioxide and energy.
