amount of ATP energy produced relative to the energy content of the carbohydrate entering the pathway
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.
The anaerobic pathway cellular respiration is known as glycolysis. In glycolysis, glucose molecules are broken down into two pyruvate molecules.Glycolysis is the only stage of cellular respiration which can occur without oxygen. The theoretical yield of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is 2 molecules for this first stage.
The maximum efficiency of aerobic respiration is around 66% in terms of converting glucose into usable energy in the form of ATP. This means that about one-third of the energy in glucose is lost as waste heat during the process of cellular respiration.
Fermentation
All organisms perform cellular respiration, which involves the breakdown of glucose to release energy in the form of ATP. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for the survival of all living organisms.

The presence of oxygen. Eg if there is oxygen the it will be aerobic respiration, if there isn't oxygen then it will be anaerobic respiration.

Cellular respiration
The glycolytic pathway is common to both fermentation and cellular respiration. During the course of the metabolic pathway, glucose is broken down to pyruvate. In the presence of oxygen, the pyruvate molecule becomes involved in the TCA cycle. In the absence of oxygen however, fermentation occures. The process is brought about by an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase.
The external inertial respiration refers to breathing, while the cellular respiration refers to respiration between the cells.
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.
