Fermentation
anaerobic respiration there is also fermentation, which is like anaerobic respiration but does not have an electron transport chain
Oxygen. This process is also known as Anaerobic respiration
aerobic respiration uses oxygen and anaerobic doesn't; also aerobic produces more ATP or cellular energy***Apex: Oxygen is necessary for aerobic respiration but not for anaerobic respiration.
In anaerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is an inorganic molecule other than oxygen, such as sulfate or nitrate, whereas in aerobic respiration, the final electron acceptor is oxygen. As a result, anaerobic respiration produces less ATP compared to aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration also produces byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol.
Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen, while cellular respiration does. Anaerobic respiration produces less energy compared to cellular respiration.
cellular respiration: anaerobic:: fermentation :anaerobic
Bacteria that do not require aerobic respiration are known as anaerobic bacteria. These bacteria can survive and grow in the absence of oxygen by using alternative electron acceptors in anaerobic pathways such as fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium and Methanogens.
Lactic acid fermentation is basically anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is respiration which takes place in the absence of oxygen. Thus, it is a way of life in anaerobic organisms. Even in aerobic organisms, anaerobic respiration takes place when the concentration of oxygen is low. Thus it also helps anaerobic organisms to survive.
I suppose so, but the amount of energy released in anaerobic respiration is usually negligible compared to the energy released during aerobic respiration
· An anaerobic process It is the metabolic process that requires no oxygen to generate energy for example respiration in the absence of O2 is called anaerobic respiration.
Anaerobic respiration is most common in microorganisms.
Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen.
