Anaerobic respiration
anaerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration refers to the process of producing energy using oxygen. It is a type of cellular respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen.
It is called anaerobic respiration. Lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation are two methods
Oxygen is the gas that is needed for cellular respiration. After respiration occurs, the body will produce carbon dioxide, another type of gas.
Cellular respiration, the process by which cells generate energy, can occur both in the presence and absence of oxygen. However, the specific type of cellular respiration that takes place differs based on oxygen availability - aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration does not.
Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. This process occurs in the cytoplasm of cells and produces energy without the need for oxygen. However, it typically generates less energy compared to aerobic respiration.
The first type of respiration is anaerobic respiration. This type of respiration does not have enough oxygen supplied. The body would be not delivering enough oxygen or the environment does not contain enough oxygen. Two things can happen is anaerobic respiration. Ethanol and lactic acid fermentation. Ethanol occurs in yeast cells in an oxygen poor environment. The product of this is alcohol. Lactic acid occurs in human cells. It occurs during strenuous exercise. This reaction begins with glycolysis, when insufficient oxygen is delivered to working muscles the pyruvate can not be shipped into the mitochondria to continue the metabolic process. Therefore the pyruvate converts to lactic acid so the cells do not run out off ATP. Lactic acid makes muscles hurt and feel sore. It will decrease the performance of the muscles.The second type of respiration is aerobic respiration, which occurs when the oxygen demand of cells are adequately met. This type of respiration produces large amount o energy.
Anaerobic respiration occurs when an organic molecule accepts hydrogen atoms in the absence of oxygen. This process typically involves glycolysis followed by fermentation to produce ATP in the absence of oxygen.
This is aerobic respiration
Anaerobic Respiration. All living organisms have the ability to respire (if only for a short period of time) without the presence of oxygen.
Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. This process occurs in the cytoplasm and can generate ATP without the need for oxygen. However, it produces less ATP compared to aerobic respiration and can result in the accumulation of lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts.
