Anaerobic respiration takes place in situations where the body isn't getting enough oxygen.

∙ 12y agoAerobic and anaerobic are terms which refer to an organism's use of oxygen.
Aerobic organisms must live in an oxygen rich environment because oxygen is a necessary component for aerobic cell respiration. In Aerobic cell respiration, oxygen is used as the final electron acceptor in the process of oxydative phosphorylation in eucaryotic cells.
Anaerobic organisms are those organisms which do not have to use oxygen as the final electron acceptor in their electron transport chain because they have the ability to use some other molecule, for example sulfur.
When the atmosphere of the planet became oxygen rich, these oxygen intolerent organisms were nearly wiped out, and aerobic organisms evolved to take their place.

Where is anaerobic respiration take place?
The reactions of anaerobic respiration take place in the cytoplasm.
Does anaerobic respiration occur in cytoplasm or mitochondria?
Because the cytoplasm region of the cell doesn't contain oxygen therefore it is suitable for anaerobic respiration.
Where in an eukaryotic cell does anaerobic respiration take place?
The anaerobic phase of cellular respiration is known as glygolysis. This is where glucose molecules are broken down into pyruvic acid.During this process, 2 molecules of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is produced.
What is an anaerobic reaction?
it is a metabolic reaction which takes place in the absence of oxygen
Fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen so what is it termed?
Any respiratory reaction that takes place in the absence of oxygen is considered an anaerobic respiratory reaction. I would have to guess that that is the answer you are looking for.
Where does anaerobic respiration take place?
cytoplasmIn the cytoplasm of the cell.
In which situation does anaerobic respiration take place in?
When the body doesn't have the physical strength to maintain the oxygen levels needed for aerobic respiration. As a result of this, lactic acid will be produced.
In what situation does anaerobic respiration takes place?
When there is no oxygen, or the organism cannot use oxygen for respiration.
Does anaerobic respiration take place inside the mitochondria?
Anaerobic Respiration occurs only in the absence of Oxygen.
What process happens in the mitochbdria?
Respiration take place in it. Anaerobic respiration is taken place
Where does the anaerobic phrase of cellular respiration take place in the cell?
in the cytoplasm
Where does alcahol fermentation take place?
It is method of anaerobic respiration. It take place in cytoplasm
What metabolic process is necessary for aerobic and anaerobic respiration to take place?
Glycolysis
Where is anaerobic respiration take place?
The reactions of anaerobic respiration take place in the cytoplasm.
When do you think anaerobic respiration might take place in your muscles?
When you are working the muscle hard.
Respiration can take place without oxygen what type of respiration this called?
Anaerobic respiration
Does anaerobic respiration occur in cytoplasm or mitochondria?
Because the cytoplasm region of the cell doesn't contain oxygen therefore it is suitable for anaerobic respiration.
