As Anaerobic respiration takes place in two different processes so we have different products according to the process.
- In the case of alcoholic fermentation (such as in yeast), alcohol (C2H5OH) and CO2 are produced as the main products of anaerobic respiration.
- In case of lactic acid fermentation (e.g in muscle cells of humans) pyruvic acid is converted into lactic acid (C3H6O3)in anaerobic respiration.
What else can I help you with?
How does the efficiency of energy production in anaerobic respiration compare to aerobic respiration?
In anaerobic respiration, the efficiency of energy production is lower compared to aerobic respiration. This is because anaerobic respiration does not fully break down glucose, resulting in the production of less energy in the form of ATP.
Production of energy without oxygen is called?
Anaerobic respiration.
What is the product of all types of respiration?
The purpose of respiration - aerobic or anaerobic - is the production of ATP.
One type of anaerobic respiration results in the production of?
One type of anaerobic respiration, called lactic acid fermentation, results in the production of lactic acid as a byproduct.
Aerobic respiration has the production of what over anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration forms carbon dioxide and water vapour producing glucose while anaerobic respiration forms carbon dioxide and lactic acid.
What are the key differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration in terms of energy production and the utilization of oxygen?
Aerobic respiration produces more energy than anaerobic respiration and requires oxygen to do so. Anaerobic respiration produces less energy and does not require oxygen.
What does 'anaerobic respiration is far less efficient than aerobic respiration' mean?
There are two types of cellular respiration: aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration occurs when there is oxygen present. In total, 36 ATP are produced by the end of aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs when there is no oxygen present. In total, just 4 ATP are produced by the end of anaerobic respiration. Thus, aerobic respiration is more efficient in comparison to anaerobic respiration as it yields more ATP
What are the two common end production for anaerobic respiration?
energy and lactic acid.
What term refers to the production of energy by a cell without using oxygen?
The process of converting glucose (C6H1206) to energy in the form of ATP is known as anaerobic respiration in humans. The pathway involves glucose as a reactant yielding 2 lactic acids and 2 ATPs.
What would indicate that the respiration reactions occurring are anaerobic?
The production of lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts would indicate that the respiration reactions are anaerobic. These byproducts are produced when there is a lack of oxygen available to complete the aerobic respiration process. Additionally, anaerobic respiration typically produces less energy compared to aerobic respiration.
When oxygen delivery to the cell is impaired which pathway is used for energy production?
anaerobic respiration
Why would you not expect to find mitochondria in anaerobic organisms?
Mitochondria are organelles responsible for aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen. Anaerobic organisms do not rely on oxygen for their energy production, instead they use fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Therefore, they would not have mitochondria.
