Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic
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.
Anaerobic respiration is not the same as fermentation, although it does happen in the absence of oxygen unlike aerobic respiration which is when glucose and oxygen react to create carbon dioxide, water and energy. Basically, aerobic respiration is what animals do to gain energy and it is the opposite of photosynthesis.
Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to produce a large number of ATP molecules, which are used in the cell as energy. Anaerobic respiration used an electron transport chain without oxygen, produces lactic acid, and produces very little ATP and, as such, very little energy.
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.
aerobic respiration give more energy than anaerobic respiration.
Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic and Anaerobic
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.
aerobic
Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.

The word aerobic means to use oxygen while anaerobic doesn't need oxygen. The products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water and energy (ATP). The products of anaerobic respiration are oxygen and energy (ATP).
Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration uses oxygen it is main source of energy in nearly all multicellular organisms and many unicellular animals.
Aerobic respiration produces more energy than anaerobic respiration(about 25x more)
