Question

what is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Answer 1

The main difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration is whether or not oxygen is present. Aerobic respiration needs oxygen to occur, while anaerobic does not. This presence of oxygen determines what products will be created.

Answer 2

• Aerobic:

1. occurs in presence of oxygen.

2. CO2 and water is produced

3. lot of energy is liberated (38 ATP)

4.occurs in plants' and animals' cells

5. C6H12O6 --> CO2 + H2O + ATP ( Energy)

• Anaerobic:

1. occurs in absence of oxygen

2. Lactic Acid or Alchol is produced

3. relatively small energy is liberated (2ATP)

4. occurs in many anaerobic bacteria and human muscle cells.

5. in muscles, lactic acid is produced while bacteria as Yeast produces Alcohol (Ethanol)

6. C6H12O6 --> Lactic acid / C2H5OH + ATP
