Question

Write three points of difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration

Answer 1

aerobic respiration occur in the presence of oxygen whereas anaerobic occur in absence of oxygen. aerobic releases large amount of energy whereas anaerobic relatively small amount of energy. completely breakdown of food occures in aerobic process. whereas incomplete or partially breakdown of food occur in anaerobic process

Answer 2

Aerobic respiration
(1)more amount of energy is released
(2)complete break down of glucose occurs
(3)it is carried out in mitochondria of higher organisms
Anaerobic respiration
(1)less amount of energy is released (2)partial break down occurs
(3)it is carried out in anaerobic microorganisms or in muscle cells of higher organisms
