Anaerobic respiration is the act of breathing without the use of oxygen. Breathing where oxygen is not the final result.

Differentiate aerobic respiration from anaerobic respiration?

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and occurs in the presence of oxygen, producing more ATP compared to anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen and generates less ATP.


What are the types of cellular respiration's?

The types of cellular respiration are aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more ATP, while anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen and produces less ATP.


What molecule is used during aerobic respiration?

Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.


How are steps of cellular respiration different when it is 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.


Explain two ways in which anaerobic respiration in humans is different from aerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen and food substances are patially broken down.They releases smaller amount of energy and produces lactic acid or alcohal.In human body, anaerobic respiration often occurs in the muscles during vigorous exercise because they don't get enough oxygen. Anaerobic respiration in humans can only happen for a short amount of time. The reason for this is that Anaerobic means without oxygen, and humans need oxygen to breath. Aerobic means with oxygen, so normally humans aerobically respire. However, if you are short of breath after viscous exercise for a short period of time you anaerobically respire.

Can you explain anaerobic respiration and its disadvantages compared to aerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration is a process that occurs in the absence of oxygen, where glucose is broken down to produce energy. One major disadvantage of anaerobic respiration is that it is less efficient than aerobic respiration, producing less energy per glucose molecule. Additionally, anaerobic respiration can lead to the buildup of lactic acid, causing muscle fatigue and soreness.


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.


Which set of pairings correctly matches the process with its condition?

cellular respiration: anaerobic:: fermentation :anaerobic


What is the name of the process of resperation that does not require oxygen?

anaerobic respiration there is also fermentation, which is like anaerobic respiration but does not have an electron transport chain


Give an exanple where anaerobic respiration occur and explain with a help of an equation?

Anarobic respiration occurs in certain types of bacteria and when our muscles get fatigued. Each case of anaerobic respiration results in the formation of an acid. We get fatigued due to the formation of lactic acid.

Anaerobic respiration is most common in microorganisms.


What gas does anaerobic respiration lack?

Anaerobic respiration occurs in the absence of oxygen.


What is the meaning of aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen!

How are respiration and anaerobic respiration different?

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.
