Answer:
There are two different ways in which glucose is oxidised:
1)Aerobic repiration (oxygen)
Breaking down of pyruvate using oxygen takes place in mitochondria.This process breaks up the three-carbon pyruvate molecule to give three molecules of carbon dioxide.this process is done in presence of oxygen.
2)Anerobic repiration (without oxygen)
The breaking of six carbon molecule, into three-carbon molecule called pyruvate.This process takes place in cytoplasm.Further, the pyruvate may be converted into ethanol and carbon dioxide.this process is done in absence of oxygen.
