Anaerobic respiration does release energy, but it only releases about 1/17 of the energy as aerobic respiration (2 ATP vs. 38 ATP generated). Some bacteria live entirely off of anaerobic respiration (oxygen might even kill them), but people cannot do so.

What is the name of the process of resperation that does not require oxygen?
anaerobic respiration there is also fermentation, which is like anaerobic respiration but does not have an electron transport chain
Why does aerobic metabolism have an advantage over anaerobic metabolism in living things?
Aerobic respiration produces more energy than anaerobic respiration(about 25x more)
Give 2 advantages of aerobic respiration over anaerobic respiration?
When a quick burst of en is needed and oxygen is in limited supply
The main advantage that aerobic respiration has over anaerobic respiration is the production of?
more energy psg
Explain aerobic and anaerobic?
Aerobic processes consume oxygen to generate energy. Anaerobic processes do not. Both generate energy, but anaerobic processes are less efficient, both generating less energy and leaving more excess junk behind.
When oxygen is not available for respiration cells use this process to release energy from gluecose?
that is anaerobic respiration. It does not require oxygen
Does anaerobic respiration in plants also release engery?
I suppose so, but the amount of energy released in anaerobic respiration is usually negligible compared to the energy released during aerobic respiration
Do aerobic respiration anaerobic respiration and fermentation release energy?
Yes they release energy from glucose and store in ATP.Fermentation also anerobic process.
How cells release energy is by?
respiration...either aerobic repiration or anaerobic
Anaerobic respiration produces what?
The equation for Anaerobic respiration is: Glucose -> Lactic Acid + Energy (ATP)
What produces the most energy aerobic or anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration releases much more energy than anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration can result in as many as 38 molecules of ATP from one molecule of glucose, compared to a net gain of 2 molecules of ATP in anaerobic respiration.
What are the advantages if any of anaerobic respiration?
The only advantage of anaerobic respiration is that it releases energy at intervals. This is unlike aerobic respiration which will emit all energy at once.
What is anaerobic respiration and give two examples of anaerobic respiration?
the mode of respiration in the absence of air ,more precisely oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. eg:-yeasts
What do you call the release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen?
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.
How are respiration and anaerobic respiration different?
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.
What are two advantages of anaerobic respiration?
The main advantage to anaerobic respiration is that, unlike aerobic respiration which releases energy all at once, anaerobic respiration releases energy in short outbursts when necessary. (when muscle cells can't get enough oxygen) Therefore, your energy lasts a lot longer.
Does aerobic or anaerobic produce more energy?
aerobic respiration give more energy than anaerobic respiration.
