if you mean the difference between aerobic to anaerobic respiration then i would say that anaerobic respiration releases about 2 ATP for every glucose molecule with the byproducts being ethanol and carbon dioxide. But in an aerobic organism the cells convert glucose (in the presence of Oxygen) to pyruvate releasing 2 ATP and then converting it to Carbon dioxide and Water releasing 36 ATP. Bringing it to a total on 38 ATP (Whew!!). Which is quite a lot compared to 2 ATP.

Is carbon dioxide produced during anaerobic respiration?

No, carbon dioxide is not produced during anaerobic respiration. In anaerobic respiration, only a small amount of energy is produced, and the end products are typically lactic acid or ethanol, depending on the organism.


What does it mean if an organism is anaerobic and how does this impact its survival and metabolism?

An organism that is anaerobic does not require oxygen to survive. Instead, it uses other molecules, such as nitrate or sulfate, for energy production. This impacts its survival and metabolism by limiting the amount of energy it can produce compared to aerobic organisms. Anaerobic organisms are typically found in environments with low oxygen levels, such as deep ocean sediments or the human gut.


Why is it not possible to survive cyanide poisoning by using anaerobic respiration alone?

Anaerobic respiration still requires oxygen to create a limited amount of energy. Cyanide prevents cells from using oxygen to create this energy, rendering both aerobic and anaerobic respiration ineffective. Without oxygen being used in cellular respiration, cells cannot produce enough energy to survive.


How does the amount of energy obtained from nuclear sources in 1990 compare with the amount obtained from moving water?

In 1990, more energy was obtained from moving water sources, such as hydroelectric power, compared to nuclear sources. Hydroelectric power was a more established and widely-used form of renewable energy at that time, while nuclear power faced public perception challenges.


What does anaerobic cellular respiration produce?

Ethanol.There are two methods and two out comes.Ethanaol is one.Other one is lactic acid


What amounts do you compare when measureing concentration?

To measure concentration, you compare the amount of the solute to the total amount of the solution.


Do all organism's have the same amount of genes?

yes, every organism has the same amount of genes in their bodies.. I think..!


The value obtained when an equation is used to calculate the amount of product that will form during a reaction?

The value obtained is the theoretical yield, which is the amount of product that should be obtained under ideal conditions according to the stoichiometry of the reaction. It represents the maximum amount of product that can be produced.


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


Compare aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

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.


What types of solutions may be obtained if the amount of ingredients is changed?

The new solutions obtained have other concentrations for solutes.


What type of respiration takes places when there is no oxygen present?

When there is no oxygen present, anaerobic respiration occurs. This process allows cells to generate energy by breaking down glucose without using oxygen, resulting in byproducts such as lactic acid in animals or alcohol and carbon dioxide in yeast. Anaerobic respiration is less efficient than aerobic respiration, producing only a small amount of ATP compared to the larger yield obtained in the presence of oxygen.
