Hi, For this answer, i am assuming you have some high school Biology knowledge (general understanding of glycolysis, kreb cycle, pyruvate oxidation etc..) Anaerobic respriation and fermentation differ in the chemical pathways. Fermentation occurs when the pyruvate (or some derivative of it) that is produced after glycolysis is reduced by NADH to usually form an organic compound (lactic acid in lactic acid fermentation and ethanol in alcoholic fermentation). It is important to note that fermentation does not have to occur in anaerobic evironments, for example yeast prefers fermentation even in the presence of oxygen (as long as sugars are available). Therefore, the defining characteristic of fermentation is that the electrons from the coenzymes (NADH from the glycolosis) are transfered back to part of the original substrate (pyruvate). Note that the electrons are donated to something which came from within the cell (pyruvate). On the other hand, anaerobic respiration is actually very similar to aerobic respiration. In anaerobic respiration, you would go through glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, kreb cycle and then electron transfer chain just as you would in aerobic respiration with the difference that that the terminal electron acceptor is NOT oxgyen (nitrate, nitrite etc..). The defining characteristic here is that the terminal electron acceptor is anything by oxygen but otherwise, it is very similar to aerobic respiration. Note that the electrons are donated to something which came from outside the cell (nitrate, nitrite etc..). Therefore, fermentation goes something like glycolysis -> donating electron back to pyruvate or a derivative of pyruvate (electron acceptor from internal source); while anaerobic respiration goes something like glycolysis -> pyruvate oxidation -> kreb cycle -> electron transfer chain with terminal electron acceptor being anything but oxygen (electron acceptor from external source). Hope this made sense
aerobic respiration uses oxygen and fermentation does not. aerobic respiration creates more energy (ATP) than fermentation. aerobic respiration (36 ATP), fermentation (2 ATP).
hope this helped :)
Aerobic respiration is more efficient than anaerobic respiration.
One glucose molecule has enough energy stored in it to produce 38 molecules of ATP,and fats contain roughly two times more energy than glucose.Glucose is the most common respitory substrate.
Glucose + Oxygen + ADP+Pi --> Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP
Anaerobic respiration is the respiration of some cells in the absence of oxygen.
This is much less efficient than aerobic respiration as the second stage cannot take place i.e. the pyruvic acid produced during during glycolysis cannot be converted to carbon dioxide and water because there is no oxygen to combine with with the hydrogen to make water.
Consequently only two ATP molecules are produced and the end products of the process are still high in energy.In plants the high-energy end product is ethanol(alcohol) and in animals the high-energy end product is lactic acid.
Plants also produce carbon dioxide during anaerobic respiration. Here is a simpler answer:
Anaerobic respiration is when an organism lives without oxygen.
Aerobic respiration is when an organism needsoxygen to live.
The main difference between aerobic and anaerobic is that one has exposure to oxygen while the other does not. In respiration, aerobic is the desired choice. In fermentation, some fermenting sources prefer to have no oxygen in their environment, while other sources would prefer the contrary.
anaerobic exercise that is better for fat loss and aerobic respiration is exercise to burn fat
Aerobic respiration is respiration using air. Anaerobic respiration is respiration not using air. Only certain organisms can do respiration without air.
Fermentation is anaerobic respiration which occurs in the absence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration occurs ONLY in the presence of oxygen
i cream tasted lik but
No it is not formed in aerobic respiration. It is produced in anaerobic respiration
No, because the electron acceptor is what cates the electrons as the leave the electron transport chain, which is oxygen in aerobic respiration. Since aerobic respiration uses oxygen, and anaerobic fermentation is abest of oxygen, anaerobic fermentation cannot possibly use oxygen as respiration does.
Aerobic respiration in humans is: Glucose + Oxygen → Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water Anaerobic respiration in humans is: Glucose → Lactic Acid + Energy
They do both. In running for example, humans do aerobic respiration when they are not in oxygen dept, and anaerobic when they are in oxygen dept and lactic acid replaces the oxygen. Oxygen dept often occurs in sprinters as they are running quickly without taking any breaths.
The release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. When there is oxygen present it is called aerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration is the metabolism of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) using oxygen. Anaerobic respiration is the metabolism of ATP without using oxygen.
aerobic respiration is when you breath air and anaerobic is when you don't
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen!
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
aerobic respiration uses oxygen and anaerobic doesn't; also aerobic produces more ATP or cellular energy***Apex: Oxygen is necessary for aerobic respiration but not for anaerobic respiration.

There are two types of cellular respiration: aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration occurs when there is oxygen present. In total, 36 ATP are produced by the end of aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs when there is no oxygen present. In total, just 4 ATP are produced by the end of anaerobic respiration. Thus, aerobic respiration is more efficient in comparison to anaerobic respiration as it yields more ATP
Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic
Cellular respiration is mostly aerobic.
Aerobic respiration is the respiration that requires oxygen. It needs oxygen in order to generate ATP. Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen.
Aerobic Respiration: Respiration that requires oxygen Anaerobic Respiration: respiration that does not use oxygen aerobic respiration is continuous. anaerobic respiration has no new subsrates from photosynthesis to continue. it is usually shorter and not as efficient.
glycolysis is the phase common to both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
