Humans only store a small amount of glycogen for anaerobic functions (fast, power movements). Aerobic respiration takes over after a short time, burning fat and eventually protein. These sources are more plentiful, and fat is a much more efficient energy storage molecule than glucose. Glycogen is more easily converted to glucose, so it is utilized first.

Anaerobic respiration means respiration without oxygen.

When you are doing hard exercise often time the body is not able to take in all the oxygen it needs so instead of the normal aerobic respiration your body will use anaerobic respiration.

Respiration must increase during exercise because your body needs more oxygen than you would if you were being less active.

How can you show you are releasing energy during respiration?

In Anaerobic exercise


Why does anaerobic respiration happen?

Anaerobic respiration occurs because aerobic respiratory only produces a small amount of ATP (2 ATP) and because oxygen is consumed quickly in tissues. Anaerobic respiration produces a high amount of ATP and is particulary important in tissues such as muscles during streneous exercise.


What happens when the oxygen requirement increases during exercise?

aerobic respiration


What happens during anaerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen. It releases a small amount of energy and forms lactic acid in the process.


What molecule is used during aerobic respiration?

Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.


Which type of anaerobic respiration occurs in animals during overexertion?

When muscles overexert, the available oxygen may run out and they resort to anaerobic metabolism creating lactic acid which is what causes the soreness felt after exercise.


What happens to your muscles if you exercise anaerobically?

anaerobic respiration causes a build up of lactic acid in your muscles which causes cramp.


How much oxygen do you use during anaerobic respiration?

90


What are the product obtained during cellular anaerobic respiration human muscle cell-?

The product obtained during cellular anaerobic respiration human muscle cell water, energy and carbon dioxide.


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


Explain two ways in which anaerobic respiration in humans is different from aerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen and food substances are patially broken down.They releases smaller amount of energy and produces lactic acid or alcohal.In human body, anaerobic respiration often occurs in the muscles during vigorous exercise because they don't get enough oxygen. Anaerobic respiration in humans can only happen for a short amount of time. The reason for this is that Anaerobic means without oxygen, and humans need oxygen to breath. Aerobic means with oxygen, so normally humans aerobically respire. However, if you are short of breath after viscous exercise for a short period of time you anaerobically respire.


Which are you more likely to get cramps anaerobic or aerobic?

You are more likely to get cramps during anaerobic exercise than during aerobic exercise. This is because your muscles are lacking oxygen.
