Aerobic cellular respiration requires oxygen and produces a high yield of energy (ATP) by fully oxidizing glucose into carbon dioxide and water. In contrast, anaerobic fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen, resulting in the partial breakdown of glucose and producing less energy, along with byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol. While aerobic respiration efficiently generates around 36-38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule, anaerobic fermentation typically yields only 2 ATP. These processes also differ in their end products and the organisms that utilize them, with aerobic respiration being predominant in most eukaryotic cells and anaerobic fermentation occurring in certain bacteria and yeast.

What is the name for cellular respiration when it doesn't have oxygen?

anaerobic fermentation


How is anaerobic respiration different from cellular respiration?

Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen, while cellular respiration does. Anaerobic respiration produces less energy compared to cellular respiration.


Is oxygen not required for cellular respiration?

Correct. Anaerobic cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and gives a net yield of 2 ATP molecules. Anaerobic respiration consists of glycolysis followed by either lactic acid fermentation or alcoholic fermentation.


Do cells make ethanol as a waste of cellular respiration?

No, ethanol is a byproduct of fermentation...not aerobic or anaerobic respiration


What term describes the release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen?

Fermentation!!!!!


Does anaerobic cellular fermentation use the same final electron acceptors as aerobic respiration?

No, because the electron acceptor is what cates the electrons as the leave the electron transport chain, which is oxygen in aerobic respiration. Since aerobic respiration uses oxygen, and anaerobic fermentation is abest of oxygen, anaerobic fermentation cannot possibly use oxygen as respiration does.


How does respiration differ from cellular respiration?

fermentation is entirely anaerobic wheras cellular respiration only has 1 out of 3 stages that is anaerobic, the other 2 being aerobic (need oxygen to carry out rweactions. from this you can tell what anaerobic must mean:) i hope this helps:D


How is fermentation's different from cellular respiration?

Without oxygen, pyruvic acids are not metabolized by cellular respiration but undergo fermentation. They are not transported into the mitochondria, but remain in the cytoplasm, where they are converted to waste products that may be removed from the cell.NADH is oxidized by the electron transport chain in respiration only.


How are the step of cellular different when it is anaerobic respiration?

The steps of cellular respiration is different when it is anaerobic respiration compared to aerobic respiration. The main difference is because aerobic respiration uses oxygen and anaerobic uses other elements but the other steps are similar.
