The substance that is generally oxidized during respiration is the “glucose”.
The aerobic respiration that is respiration that takes place in the ‘presence of oxygen’ yields the formation of glucose, carbon dioxide, and water.
Anaerobic respiration that is the respiration that takes place in the ‘absence of oxygen’ leads to the formation of ethanol and carbon dioxide or lactic acid. The ‘amount of energy’ produced during an aerobic respiration is higher.
