In cellular respiration, going through the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain create a total of 36 ATP molecules. Without oxygen you only can get 2 ATP molecules because those reactions require oxygen.

Is oxidative phosphorylation involved as a pathway with ATP?
Oxidative phosphorylation is involved as a pathway with ATP.Although the many forms of life on earth use a range of different nutrients, almost all carry out oxidative phosphorylation to produce ATP, the molecule that supplies energy to metabolism. This pathway is probably so pervasive because it is a highly efficient way of releasing energy, compared to alternative fermentation processes such as anaerobic glycolysis.
What are the two types of resiration?
*respiration? if so aerobic and anaerobic
What does it mean when you have a low Lactic Dehydrogenase level?
not an epert but here is what I know: Low Lactic dehydrogenase means that you have low concentration of the enzyme that converts pyruvate (end product of glycolysis) into Lactate. This reaction occures when there is low or no oxygen levels (anaerobic conditions) and during times when our body needs energy (ATP) fast. EX. Sprinting away from a car chasing you. So having low lactic dehydrogenase would mean ultimately having low energy levels.
Fermentation occurs in the absence of oxygen so what is it termed?
Any respiratory reaction that takes place in the absence of oxygen is considered an anaerobic respiratory reaction. I would have to guess that that is the answer you are looking for.
Does anaerobic respiration release energy?
Anaerobic respiration does release energy, but it only releases about 1/17 of the energy as aerobic respiration (2 ATP vs. 38 ATP generated). Some bacteria live entirely off of anaerobic respiration (oxygen might even kill them), but people cannot do so.
Why is the efficiency of anaerobic pathways so low?
In the absence of oxygen, glycolysis soon stops unless there is an alternative acceptor for the electrons produced from the glycolytic pathway. The duration of the fermentation is limited by the toxic effects of the organic compound produced. Short term energy stores are rapidly depleted, lactic acid builds up, and exercise soon comes to a halt.
Is bowling a cardio exercise?
No. It's movements are neither vigorous nor sustained enough to yield any increases in cardiovascular efficiency. .
Anaerobic respiration requires low levels of oxygen?
Anaerobic respiration occurs only in the absence of O2. When O2 is present, aerobic processes take over; so it can be said that O2 'poisons' anaerobic biochemistry.

How does a low flow change it's course during the dry seasons?
it gos slower so that it has time to erode another pathway to follow
Is fungi is anaerobic?
It can live in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions . So , basically it is both ...!
Did aerobic repsiration evolve before anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic means with oxygen Anaerobic means without. So, anaerobic would have to come first.
Is aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration more beneficial for your cells?
anaerobic respiration is definitely more beneficial for your cells becauseAnaerobic respiration (anaerobiosis) refers to the oxidation of molecules in the absence of oxygen to produce energy, in opposition to aerobic respiration which does use oxygen. Anaerobic respiration processes require another electron acceptor to replace oxygen. Anaerobic respiration is often used interchangeably with fermentation, especially when the glycolytic pathway is used for energy production in the cell. They are not synonymous terms, however, since certain anaerobic prokaryotes can generate all of their ATP using an electron transport system and ATP synthase. Definition of anaerobic respiration: the breakdown of food substances in the absence of oxygen with a small amount of energy.aerobic is the absence of air in cells which is a bad thing so anaerobic is the best for cells.
How are steps of cellular respiration different when it is anaerobic respiration?
Anaerobic means without air, so there is no respiration.
Describe why a high-efficiency machine is more desirable than a low-efficiency machine?
Efficiency is the ratio of the energy converted into useful work by the machine to the energy supplied to the machine. Certainly it will not be possible to convert all the energy supplied into useful work because of wastage of energy due to so many reasons. So efficiency will be always less than 1. As the efficiency becomes more the loss would become less. Hence it is desirable.
What is an example of anaerobic excercise?
The yeast in beer. It lacks oxygen and so reverts to anaerobic respiration, where the byproduct is alcohol.
How is this ''metabolic pathway'' similar to the metabolic pathway of cellular respiration?
i dont know the answer to this question so that is why i am asking you for your help on this question or you can come up with an answer for this question so that i can get the answer
