Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, whereas anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen.
Aerobic respiration is completed in three steps viz, Glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle and Electron transport chain; whereas anaerobic respiration is completed in Glycolysis.
Aerobic respiration involves carbon dioxide as the major excretory by-product, whereas in anaerobic respiration, along with carbon dioxide, ethyl alcohol (in case of plants) and lactic acid (in case of animals) is liberated.

∙ 14y agoThe answer is, not that different. Aerobic respiration in the body is respiration using oxygen. This is where energy is used to do something usefull, for example run.
(respiration) Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon dioxide + water + energy
(combustion) Fuel + Oxygen + heat = Carbon dioxide + energy + water
As you can see, the main difference is the use of heat to help produce the energy needed. Having said this, heat does help in respiration in the body. The metabolic rate, or rate of respiration in the body.
In Anaerobic respiration which is what I think you meant is where respiration takes place though a complex process without oxygen. This is inefficient but does the job on your last 50 metre sprint at the end of your 1000 metre race!
Simply put:
Glucose = Lactic acid + energy
A smaller amount of energy is created but so is the highly posioness lactic acid. This has to be gotten rid of immeidately otherwise it will result in muscle cramp (paralysis/spasm) and ultimately muscle death. This is also what will make your muscle ache just after that last sprint. When this happends in vehicals for example, Carbon monoxide, also posioness is produced:
Fuel + small amount of oxygen (oxygen is still needed) = Carbon monoxide + energy

∙ 14y agoAnaerobic respiration is when your body "backs up" aerobic respiration when you run out of energy. Anaerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide based energy when aerobic respiration produces oxygen based energy. For example, if your running down a court with 10 seconds left in the games and you know you have to make a goal, but your body is losing energy, anaerobic respiration "kicks in" and gives you enough energy to finish the game. You can also call the the anaerobic respiration adrenalin

∙ 11y ago...and anaerobic respiration? Aerobic requires oxygen.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoaerobic respiration requires oxygen while anaerobic does not require oxygen.

∙ 12y agoin aerobic respiration you need oxygen and fuel. In burning you need oxygen, fuel, and heat

What is the major difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration?
anaerobic respiration it does not require oxygen to survive,but only CO2 requiring whereas aerobic does require oxygen
Difference between Aerobic and Anerobic Activity?
Aerobic : If respiration takes place in the presence of O2, then it is called aerobic respiration/ aerobic activity. Eg: Plants and animals, protozoans, some bacteriaAnaerobic: IF respiration takes place in the absence of O2, then it is called anaerobic respiration/ anaerobic activity. Eg: Yeast, some bacteria
What is Slowest ATP regeneration process?
Aerobic Respiration
Difference between the two types of respiration?
Anaerobic does not need oxygen to occur, aerobic does. Both pathways start with the process of glycolysis.
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration and photosynthesis?
Aerobic Respiration takes place in eukaryotic cells, uses oxygen, and produces more ATP(Adenosine Tri-phosphate). Anaerobic Respiration occurs in Prokaryotic cells, does not use oxygen, and produces less ATP than Aerobic Respiration. Photosynthesis does not use oxygen but it does produce it. Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration both use glucose to make energy, but photosynthesis makes glucose for food. This is because it is an autotroph and makes its own food.
What is the difference between the two types of respiration?
Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic Respiration. Aerobic is respiring in the presence of oxygen Anaerobic is respiring in the absence of oxygen
What is the major difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration?
anaerobic respiration it does not require oxygen to survive,but only CO2 requiring whereas aerobic does require oxygen
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis?
They are both types of respiration. Aerobic uses oxygen and anaerobic does not.
What is the difference between breathing and aerobic respiration?
aerobic respiration is the controlled release of energy from food using oxygen whereas breathing is the process by which organisms exchange gasses with the environment.
The Difference of aerobic respiration and unaerobic respiration?
Aerobic Respiration: Respiration that requires oxygen Anaerobic Respiration: respiration that does not use oxygen aerobic respiration is continuous. anaerobic respiration has no new subsrates from photosynthesis to continue. it is usually shorter and not as efficient.
Difference between Aerobic and Anerobic Activity?
Aerobic : If respiration takes place in the presence of O2, then it is called aerobic respiration/ aerobic activity. Eg: Plants and animals, protozoans, some bacteriaAnaerobic: IF respiration takes place in the absence of O2, then it is called anaerobic respiration/ anaerobic activity. Eg: Yeast, some bacteria
Name 3 differences between glycolysis and aerobic respiration?
Glycolisis belongs to both aerobic and non aerobic respiration.
Aerobic respiration statements?
Aerobic respiration is the difference in H+ concentrations on opposite sides of the inner mitochondrial membrane. This is taught in science.
How is fermentation diffrent than aerobic respiration?
Produces far less energy than aerobic respiration. That's the main difference.
What the difference between anaerobic bacteria and aerobic?
Aerobic bacteria uses oxygen for cellular respiration and anaerobic bacteria doesn't require oxygen to survive. ˇ_ˇ 
What is the main difference between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic Respiration :Respiration that uses oxygen and anerobic is done without oxygenNew Answer :Aerobic RespirationRespiration That uses Oxygen to form Co2 , H2o and Energy is called Aerobic RespirationThe Equation is :Food + O2 = Co2 + H2o + EnergyAnaerobic Respiration :Respiration that Does not use Oxygen to Form : Co2 , Ethanol and EnergyThe Equation is :Glucose = Pyrovic Acid = Co2 + Ethanol + EnergyHere = is givesand Ethanol = C2H5OHThanks hope this helpedGood LuckMain diffenernce between the two is - Anaerobic respiration is without oxygen, Aerobic with oxygen
Compare between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic - Reguires/has oxygenAnaerobic - Has no oxygen
