Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.
The disadvantage is that anerobic respiration produces less energy than aerobic respiration, and as a result the organism grows at a much slower rate.
Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.
Because anaerobic respiration releases less energy than aerobic respiration.
The two main types of respiration are aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen and produces energy efficiently, and anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen and produces energy less efficiently.
Anaerobic respiration only glycolysis occurs which forms 2ATP. However, in aerobic respiration there is the Krebs cycle which is responsible for making 2 ATP and the electron transport chain which is responsible for making 30 ATP. Most textbooks say that for aerobic respiration around 36-38 ATP is made. When compared to the 2 from anaerobic it is a major difference in energy production.
The breakdown of food without the use of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. This process generates energy in the form of ATP, but produces lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts. Anaerobic respiration is less efficient than aerobic respiration in terms of ATP production.
Glycolysis: 2 ATP per molecule of glucose Total ATP yield of aerobic respiration (including glycolysis): 36 ATP per molecule of glucose (theoretical, less in reality due to leaking of protons across the mitochondrial inner membrane)
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
aerobic respiration give more energy than anaerobic respiration.
Fermentation is an anaerobic process, which means it does not require oxygen to occur. Instead, it uses organic compounds as alternative electron acceptors to generate energy. This process is less efficient than aerobic respiration but allows cells to continue producing ATP in the absence of oxygen.
The two types of respiration are aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more energy than anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen. Anaerobic respiration produces lactic acid or ethanol as byproducts, while aerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide and water.
Aerobic refers to action where oxygen is able to be introduced. Anaerobic refers to a lack of oxygen. Aerobic exercise is a physical activity that allows the participant to breathe and replenish their supply of oxygen such as long distance running. Anaerobic exercise uses oxygen faster than the body is able to replenish it. The cells use any stored oxygen but have to operate without their supply being replenished for a short time. Sprinting would be an anaerobic activity.
